Congrats! And remember: if you’re hiring anyone to do anything, you’re paying them precisely so that you don’t have to worry about it. Once the contract’s signed, let it go; they’ll show up and it’ll be fine.
Remember, if all else fails, there’s always the county court house. That’s what Jonathan and I did, and we are still very happy with that decision. I understand that you probably don’t want to court-house it or you would have done so by now, but if the whole wedding thing gets way too stressful, there are other options, and court-housing it really isn’t bad.
BTW, best wishes. Yay for vacations! Are you taking E?
Hey, extra motivation to make the necessary preparations for the wedding. Unless, of course, you just decided to throw a huge, kick-ass party and then go on vacation. Um, strike that last part.
We’re definitely doing the courthouse, but I have to rustle up a birth certificate. Chef has the home court advantage of having been born within town.
Perhaps I should call it a “wedding.”
Well, at least you’ve got your Kama Sutra ready for the big night.
Reception? You know you want to cash in on the wedding gifts!
Sweet! Auguste had me spraying coffee on my keyboard.
not “putting the cart before the horse” at all - speaking from experience, planning the honeymoon first and then the wedding around it is smart, and what we should have done. instead, our honeymoon was effectively preempted due to, ahem, certain mother-in-law machinations i won’t go into here.
I think your priorities are in the right place :-).
I’d say that sounds about right. We spent a long weekend in Vegas, partied it up with each other on Saturday and Sunday, got married at 9:00 am on Monday, and flew home at 2:00 p.m. We enjoyed our joint bachelor/bachelorette party (with just ourselves)/honeymoon combo before our 7 minute wedding ceremony. We drank maragaritas afterwards. This, of course, was all after almost having our flight canceled due to the snow in Vegas.
Well, at least you didn’t sign up for a course in philosophy before the wedding, as a sort of marital preparation.
Because that would have been putting Descartes before the hors d’oevres.
(Sorry)
Lauren -
You shouldn’t need a birth certificate for a Marriage License - I’m guessing you need it for that reason, so if I’m wrong, well, I’m wrong. Sorry. The hubby and I just did it, and in Tippecanoe County, all you need are your drivers licenses, parents names, and $20. It was remarkably easy.
