Congratulations! Best wishes to both of you! Will there be a webcast of the ceremony? That was fun when Montfort and Anniz got married. ---

You said ā€œsmall, intimate ceremonyā€ Does that mean a traditional wedding(for Vegas anyway)? No theme wedding at Caesarā€™s Palace, with Caesar and Cleopatra as attendants, no getting married on a gondola at the Bellagio, no medeival costumes at the Excalibur? Whatever, congratulations! Weddings are fun, and I hope you two have a long life together. ---

Congratulations to you both! I like the getting married on Leap Day concept. Does that mean that 40 years hence youā€™ll only be celebrating your 10th anniversary? What a great idea to keep the marriage fresh and young! BTW, I hope that youā€™ll be having mini-receptions at Dopefests around the world. ---

Just answering a few questions. Thereā€™s no webcast planned, although thatā€™s a nice thought. Not just for Dopers, mind you, but for my parents as well. Good idea! Yes, it will be a traditional wedding. No themes. Well, not during the ceremony, anyway. Later on, in the honeymoon suite, weā€™ll have our own theme ni- uh. Enough about that. šŸ™‚ Weā€™ll probably end up on my side of the pond eventually. Stag night, thereā€™s none planned as far as I know. But arenā€™t your mates supposed to throw you one without your knowledge? šŸ™‚ ---
