After a whirlwind romance and a faster engagement (okay, after four years, but who’s counting?) **burundi** and I have tied the knot. The hours before our May 10 ceremony were all kinds of crazy, but ever since has been wonderful. So far, this marriage thing rocks.

[A picture of the happy couple](http://www.ashevillehumane.org/images/misc/dands.jpg) – I think in this picture, **burundi’s** mom is saying something embarrassing about us in her toast.

Yay marriage!

Good, good, this is good. We only need six more marriages to make our quota for the year, and we’re not even halfway through! Come on, people, let’s see if we can get this done by the end of the summer, and then just relax or maybe even get a head start on 2004!

Wow! You’re a **beautiful** couple!

Congrats and best wishes from me and my Doper darling, **Upside\_Down\_Amber**.

PS, **burundi** ’s gown looks lovely - that’s a compliment coming from me, I get very catty about wedding gowns if I think they are ugly or too ornate.

Congrats, Daniel and Burundi! Nice braid on the groom, (sez the fellow redhead with a braid about as long…)

May your life together be filled to the brim with love and happiness!

Hey, I didn’t know you were a redhead, **Daniel**! You never posted to a “busty redhead thread” ha ha.

Congratulations!!

Sheesh man, you look good in cream suit! **burundi** looks quite stunning as well, and you both look beyond happy. I like the outside wedding vibe - Mrs hawthorne and I did the deed in the sunshine too. And a four year engagement _is_ brief by our standards. Congratulations.
