We eloped. Didn’t tell a soul, not even close family (though I supposed I have to tell my mother soon). Just went down to the County Clerk’s office, paid the fee and did the deed.
I’m very happy.
when’s the baby due, August?
just joshing.
congratulations. I kind of wanted to do it that way, but it turned out quite otherwise.
Well, it’s my third marriage and his second so this seemed like the best way. Our kids are almost grown and there are no plans for more…ever.
Trunk Thanks. (And thanks for not pointing out my typo in the OP. That’ll teach me not to preview) It was a bit surreal but now that it’s sinking in we’re very happy.
Velvet, is this an excerpt from your new book, “I Wanna Be a Married Ho”?
Congrats!
Hurrah! Congrats.
Wow, some ceremony! What did you guys do for the honeymoon? 
Congratulations.
Elopements are great - no muss, no fuss.
Wishing you a happily ever after! Congrats!

Much congratulations! 
Aside:
There seem to be a lot of wedding and baby announcements in the past few months. Is it time to start up another round of the Doper Dating Service, to help add to the list?
Snooooopy Who told?
Casey1505 Well, after the ceremony it was lunch time and since niether of us had much breakfast we were starved so we headed to a nearby Irish Pub where we had a couple of margaritas and some lunch to celebrate. Then we went home and made each other very, very, very happy for a couple of hours.
Last night we tried a new restaurant for dinner and had some of the best food we’ve ever had. He had elk, I had duck we shared a bottle of wine and a foi gras appetiser that was amazing.
The really kind of wierd thing is that just before we went to the Clerk’s office I went to my regular yearly visit to the gynocologist. It added to the surrealness of the day.
We’re both back at work today so either the honeymoon’s already over or just on hold until later.
Thanks for the well wishes FairyChatMom, AngelicGemma and mistee.
Woo! Congrats.
Is this for luck, like “something old, something new, I’m getting married when the doctor’s through?”
I mean, I’ve heard of having a mechanic look over a car you are planning on purchasing, but that seems like a little much.

This is very funny.
Casey1505 I didn’t think of that but I like it. I did invite him to join me for the Dr. appt. but he said he’d just rather wait for me at home. Chicken. Funny, he didn’t really want to hear the details either.
Reminds me of my first wedding. Picture this, I’m a mere child of 20 (that was 1981 you do the math) big Catholic church wedding, white gown, tuxedos, 4 bridesmaids two of whom are my sisters. We’re in the ladies room getting ready and my sisters are chanting this to me:
She fucked, she fucked
She can’t wear white
she’ll have to wear green
Repeatedly, while stuffing their bras with TP to fill out the bodice of their bridesmaid dresses better. Crazy bitches. It makes me laugh to this day.

Got drive-thru and did it twice. </homer>
Congratulations Velvet!
Congratulations! Here’s to many happy years together.
Archergal, getting married in 10 days.
