*mutters about his gold-lettered invitation having surely gotten lost in the mail, about the inconsideration of some people getting married in fool exotic locales like the Eastern Standard Timezone, about how marriages won't last anyway, and how the weather is too wet....*

*basically, as Form gets more and more crotchety, it means he's trying harder and harder to hide that he's grinning like a Cheshire cat*

Though unavoidable circumstances (*coughmoney* *coughdistance*) completely rendered attendance unthinkable, this was on my calendar and you've been/are in my prayers.

Thanks for the awesome narration, and for posting the photos (they're the first we've gotten to see) Fea! I'm so glad you, Lari and Nienna were there, and I wish we'd had more of a change to talk - I was so busy with Annika, I neglected my guests.

Thanks to everyone for your congratulations - this is such a wonderful community, and just shows how much warmth and friendship can be found in the so-called "jungle" of the internet. Sheesh, I sound corny.

I'm curious whose the other two weddings were...

And Miggy - if you look closely, you'll see that I have one (one of these, as a matter of fact). As for Mac, it was hard enough getting him to wear a vest!

To the well-organized mind, marriage is but the next great adventure.

Congratulations, Rikae and Mac, and best wishes to you and your family! Herzliche Glückwünsche und alles Gute für Eure gemeinsame Zukunft!

A special thanks to Fea for the lively and amusing narrative and for integrating the lovely pictures Nienna took! You provided the rest of us who were not so fortunate as to be able to attend personally with a glimpse through the keyhole of time and space.

Oh yeah, nice!
Very Arwen-like, Rikae!

And since I see Estelyn wishing you something in German, I will to, however also reminding you of what marriage truly means:

Ehe - ein Buch, bei dem das erste Kapitel in Poesie geschrieben ist und die übrigen in Prosa.
