Congratulations. That guy’s dancing barefoot.

We actually met ballroom and swing dancing and he almost always dances barefoot. 🙂

I can’t do it because of all the spins but he says that it gives him better control.

Great…one less gorgeous, intelligent, fun-loving, classy, well-read dame in the world who’s available. And I’m supposed to celebrate this? :dubious:

Well, congratulations to you and your beau, anyway, and good luck. You look beautiful in the dress, by the way.

Thanks Stranger! I got so inspired the last time we talked that I went out and found myself a gen-u-ine Mechanical Engineer!

You look absolutely gorgeous! But, ummmm, are you sure your new hubby is over the age of consent? 😉

He’s 22, I’m 24. At least that’s what he told me. I’ve never seen his driver’s license though. Hmm…

I’m not a big cake fan, especially those cakes you only ever see at weddings that are white with the jelly filling. Yuk.

We got these from a local bakery for about $40/cake decorated.

Wow, that is a rockin price for cheesecakes that look that good. Had cheesecake been an option, I’d have picked it for our wedding, too. Instead we got a cake with fruit mixed in with the frosting, it was delicious.

Uh, where was I? Oh yes, shouldn’t post so close to lunchtime. Looks like you had a wonderful day for an outdoor wedding (a buddy of mine is getting married outdoors in northern lower Michigan in October, the sadist), and things must have went off pretty well, because you’re smiling an awful lot (you cradle robber, you).

Anyhow, great stuff! Now, remember how much you stressed out about the wedding and how most of the stuff you stressed about didn’t really matter all that much in the end? Keep that in mind for the rest of the marriage and enjoy!

At first I thought “Dammit! What’s the hot blonde chick doing marrying that old bald guy!?!?” But then I kept looking through the pictures (Pausing for a while at the photo Twikster so tactfully pointed out) and realized that was dear old dad. Congrats.

Congratulations and best wishes!

I’m with you on hating regular wedding cake. We’re going with cheesecake for our wedding in December too. It tastes so much better than boring, dry white cake and it’s cheaper than over-decorated wedding cakes. Win-win!

You were a beautiful bride! Looks like fun was had by all, especially your barefoot husband! And I’d kill for some of that cheesecake - YUM!

So, I can assume the rest of your posts on this board before were dishonest? 😉
