Day 4 - Flowers?
No flowers for me!!
In place of flower bouquets, I’ll be holding something like this:
And the bridesmaids will be holding lanterns:
Lanterns will also decorate the back of the altar. =]
Day 3 - Wedding Party Gifts?
For the groomsmen - all of them will be wearing that sword pin on the bottom, with Joe wearing both the sword and the dragon. They’ll keep the pins afterward.
(Nerdy Explanation: [Wheel of Time spoilers - Lord of Chaos]: In Wheel of Time, when Rand establishes the Black Tower, where men go to learn to channel saidin instead of being caught and killed/gentled because they’ll eventually go insane. The White Tower is the female version of this, and has three levels of schooling - Novice, Accepted, and Aes Sedai, all with different uniforms. The Black Tower translates that into its own three ranks - Soldier, Dedicated, and Asha’man. Once they reach Dedicated they are given the sword pin to wear on one collar, and once reaching Asha’man they are given the dragon.)
For the bridesmaids - I have no idea! Some of you are on here, anything you guys want?
Lawnhaven at the Stroudmoor Country Inn. This place is gorgeous and they recently renovated it (after I already booked it) which really just seemed like a cool favor for me because it’s even more beautiful now.
On Wedding Stationary
Protip:
If you do not include a way for me to preview what my save the date/invitation/etc. will look like with my information and every possible picture I could include, I will not even remotely consider buying from you.
No I will not “request a proof,” I am a child of the Internet and if you don’t have some sort of design and customize feature on your website I will move the fuck along.
On that note: Vistaprint, you have your shit TOGETHER. Feature to let me upload a picture while looking and see it on EVERY POSSIBLE STYLE? Done.
Prior to the wedding, you gather a strong wooden wine box, a bottle of wine and two glasses. Then, also before the ceremony, you both sit down separately and write love notes to each other, explaining your feelings on the eve of your wedding day. Each letter then gets sealed in its own envelope. You do not read your beau’s letter.
Then, at some point during the ceremony, your officiant explains the process, and the two of you seal the box by taking turns hammering in one nail at a time until the box is closed.
You don’t open the box until your 10th anniversary (or really whatever anniversary you choose. Either way, on the day that you open the box, you both read the letters and drink the wine, remembering how you both felt just days before your wedding day.
I wanna do this.
What a cute idea…. totally all for this.
this.
This is the perfect wedding ring. For the long time you will wear it, the heart will permanently leave a mark on the finger and even without the ring, the heart will always be a symbol of eternal love.

Oh man. Joe and I say this (in the picture) all the fucking time. I really really wish this wasn’t too inappropriate to be our wedding vows. <3
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
This fucking song.
JAMIE
Will you share your life with me for the next ten minutes?
For the next ten minutes - We can handle that.
We could watch the waves, we could watch the sky,
Or just sit and wait as the time ticks by
And if we make it till then, can I ask you again for another ten?
And if you in turn agree to the next ten minutes
And the next ten minutes, till the morning comes
Then just holding you might compel me to ask you for more.
There are so many lives I want to share with you.
I will never be complete until I do
CATHERINE
I’m not always on time. Please don’t expect that from me.
I will be late, but if you can just wait, I will make it eventually.
Not like it’s in my control. Not like I’m proud of the fact.
But anything other than being exactly on time I can do.
I don’t know why people run. I don’t know why things fall through.
I don’t know how anybody survives in this life without someone like you.
I could protect and preserve. I could say no and goodbye.
But why, Jamie, why?
I want to be your wife. I want to bear your child.
I want to die knowing I had a long, full life in your arms.
That I can do. Forever, with you
JAMIE
Will you share your life with me
CATHERINE
Forever
JAMIE
For the next ten lifetimes?
CATHERINE
Forever, Jamie
JAMIE
For a million summers
BOTH
Till the world explodes.
Till there’s no one left
Who has ever known us apart
JAMIE
There are so many dreams I need to see with you…
CATHERINE
There are so many years I need to be with you…
JAMIE
I will never be complete
CATHERINE
I will never be alive
JAMIE
I will never change the world until I do
CATHERINE
I do
JAMIE
I do
CATHERINE
I do
BOTH
I do…
