Easy... quick... a total non-event. But then we went to this great little pub in the new 'hood and loved it! The food was fantastic - some of the best French onion soup I've had. So, one marriage license and a new "local"! Woohoo!

my earrings came in the mail the other day from the custom jeweler who designed them for me!

 

here's for the august wedding in cabo:

 

and here's for the civil ceremony:

 

i have a pic of the BM earrings too but photobucket is going really slow this morning for some reason. i will post when it finally uploads. the designer is so nice, she even threw in a free pair of earrings *which just happen to match my shower dress* so now im thinking i might wear the same dress to my 2nd shower that i wore to the first one because i have these cute earrings!

Although our DW is in Nov, we have decided to have our legal ceremony in Aug. I have talked to our MOH and BM and they will be there with us. My MOH works in a registry office, so she is getting us the marriage certificate for free.

 

We have decided to do it on 08/08/08. This will be our special day that we can combine with my birthday since that will also be my birthday. We will be celebrating our anniversay withhour DW date, but this way we can celebrate both and no one else even has to know.
