We were married this morning in an Easter sunrise service on a covered pier at the lake. Edlyn planned and executed nearly all of it, and it was very beautiful, and we are very happy. Thought we’d let the Dopers know. See y’all soon!

(Oh, yeah. The neatest thing happened. In the service, at the very _instant_ the pastor spoke of the rising sun, linking it to our new lives together, the sun poked out over the trees and bathed the cold covered pier in sudden bright, warm rays of light! Wow.)

Congratulations, Libertarian. The ceremony sounds beautiful.

I hope you and your wife have a long and happy life together.

Congrats Lib…question for you.

Why the heck are you posting or even on the internet on your wedding day?

Go and practice making kids, sheesh!

Congrats again.

Oh, and I clipped a cartoon from a couple of years ago that fits what I am thinking.

The caption says:

> [@](#):

> It ws not until thier wedding night that Jason was able to grasp the full scope of Amanda’s online addiction.

The picture is the couple in a heart shaped hot tub with champagne. He has the sad look on his face while she’s on the other side of the hot tub typing away on a laptop with the goofiest look on her face.

😉 I couldn’t resist.

Lib, you _do_ realise I’m going to start a new thread in Great Debates now:  
**"The Ethics of Getting Married on Easter"**.

OK, stop throwing things already guys 😉

Congratulations, Lib. May you lead a happy life.

That sounds like a lovely ceremony. The sunrise at that perfect moment sounds like a very good omen!
