All the best to you both – and it seems y’all have been having just that for 33 years. I count on you declaring it retroactive for purposes of planning the Golden Anniversary event. The Farmers Market is an excellent post-wedding celebration venue in these economically austere times.

Congratulations! We, too, eloped after a long relationship (not quite as long as you guys), and were both surprised to find how much the ceremony meant to us.

How delightful. We got married in your city and you got married in ours. This makes us relatives, I think!

My fiancee and I just read this and she has ideas now. Bad Dmark, bad! No biscuit!  
I don’t even like LA and now… well THAT’S where we have to go.

OK, just kidding. Congratulations. I wish you the very best. But, after just 33 years are you sure this is going to last? Maybe you two are just jumping into things just because of that initial glow of extreme happiness when you are SURE that he or she is The One. Have you discussed this with your parents?

When prying people asked me that after I was married but before we had kids, I’d say “We’ve been talking about it, but lately I’ve heard that’s not how it’s done!”
