Congratulations! Couldn’t happen to two nicer people. I’m glad to know I wasn’t wrong, just prescient. 😉 [Ace gives mad hugs] **Billdo** , didn’t show? That dog! I’m no wedding expert. All I can tell you is that mine (god willing) will be in a bar, everyone will be rollicking, and will start with the bachelor/ette party, culminate with a group hug, marriage, and the newlyweds crowd-surfing into the limo. 😃 Can’t wait to see y’all in January! -Ace ---

You two make such a cute couple. I wish you both the best. ---

**Jersey** , as a fellow bride and cheapskate extraordinaire, I’m just full of shoestring wedding plans. Feel free to email me anytime, or drop by [www.ultimatewedding.com](http://www.ultimatewedding.com) and private message me. The one thing you are absolutely, under no circumstances allowed to do is buy a wedding magazine. They are instruments of evil and exist solely to find new ways to extort money from you. I catch you with one of those things, I’m gonna roll it up and hit you with it, you hear? 😃 Congratulations, and happy planning! ---

Congrats, **Jersey** and **joe\_cool**. You’ve already got the happy together part down, so I’ll just wish you lots and lots of lucky with every other aspect of your lives together. Can’t really give you any advice on inexpensive for weddings, as ours isn’t going to be. (That’s what I get for marrying into a big Italian family!) But from the sounds of things, you’re getting lots of good advice already anyway. I _will_, however, give you a link to a website I’ve found incredibly helpful. [The Knot](http://www.theknot.com) has a lot of good advice and a lot of good planning tools for any size wedding. ---

Married? Me? I don’t know what you people are talking about! hahaha Just kidding. Thanks everybody, and we’re hoping to see as many of you folks as possible at the big gathering in NYC in January. Especially all the NY/NJers. Everybody else might have trouble getting here, but you guys have no excuse. 🙂 ---

Darn, Darn, Darn. Too late again! 🙂 Congrats, guys. I must say you two are the cutest DoperCouple (not that Geobabe and UncleBill, and Mr. Cynical and Miss Creant and the other engaged-DoperCouples aren’t darn cute, but you may well be the cutest). That’s so exciting. Having receptions in both NJ and NM should be fun. I imagine it will take some of the stress off each of them. So, will we see you two before the big day? The January Dopefest is just too far away. Can you make it into the City for another before that? Are you planning to go to the New Jersey OcDoperFest (search for Green Bean’s thread on it if you haven’t seen it)? Can’t wait to see you to congratulate you in person. ---
