1. Thanks for asking, lionesspriyanka. We are! |
|
I can't wait...
Nothing big or fancy. Just about 25-30 of our closest family and friends. We rented a house and a couple of cabins on a local lake and my sister-in-law is performing the ceremony. We have a strict dress code: Jeans, shorts, sweats, or whatever is comfy. Anyone defying our orders will end up in the swimming pool. :evilgrin:
Aren't you getting married soon, too? Or has that already happened? We are so busy right now that I lost track of what is going on on DU.
Congrats to you and your SO.
:hi:

3. That sucks. My sis is in the same predicament. But she lives in Oklahoma |
|
which probably is a little bit worse than NY.
I hope that the laws change soon. :hi:

4. Is the new name "Rockit-Lioness?" |
|
Too bad about the NY law. At least they are moving in the right direction. In 2004, the Ohio voters passed a draconian state constitutional ban on both gay marriage and civil unions. I think my wife and I were the only ones on my street to vote against it. People are afraid of all the wrong things.

5. "People are afraid of all the wrong things." that really sums it up nicely |
|
and I don't for one minute think it's not on purpose that the right tries to make them afraid of the wrong things.
I think I woke up on the outraged liberal side of the bed today instead of the valiant liberal cheerleader side.

7. It is absolutely on purpose. |
|
Divide and conquer. That's what it's all about.

I love your dress code! Seems to me that the whole bridezilla thing has gotten so grotesque that weddings are no longer anything fun. New Beau and I have already discussed that *if* we ever got that far we'd have a civil union in Vegas by Fat Elvis wearing a rhinestone zippered jumpsuit. I'll settle for no less and no more.
Congrats to you too Lioness! Screw the bastards I say. Let them (Rush, Newt, Rudy,etc.) show the world how much we value marriage in America! Hypocritical em-effers

8. thanks, Connonym. We almost went to Reno to do it there |
|
but we thought we'll just plan it as a party/family get-together and the family won't feel sad that they weren't part of it.
I don't understand people who spend tens of thousands (or hundreds of thousands) of dollars on huge weddings. What a nightmare. The stress of planning everything and then trying to pay off such a huge loan. People are crazy.

10. We dressed up for the wedding, but people changed into shorts |
|
at the reception. The reception was at a campground, so we had people playing cards, dancing, playing soccer and even a Labador puppy!
