Dave and I had wonderful day out on the water on Saturday. The weather was stunning, especially for May 1st. We anchored on an old downed tree and took upon the task of arranging our wedding ceremony.
We want something meaningful and personal for us, slightly traditional, but not overly so. Sounded simple, but it really involved a lot of work between the two of us. We worked passages we liked and added our own spin to them, keeping in mind the civil ceremony script that the JOP usually follows. We'll need to send him our "script" to make sure he's comfortable with it and it can be used legally. We think it can be, but we'll need to make sure.
We came back to the house, then sat out on the back deck. Dave recited passages and I typed them out on my laptop to complete our "script" including a modern twist on a Scottish handfasting ceremony. I think it will be very special.
Now we need to work on the bar arrangements and how much alcohol and other beverages to get and where and how we'll put our music.
A tentative restaurant has been picked for a family dinner the night before the wedding. We won't be having a wedding rehearsal since there are no attendants and we should be able to relay our service and the order of it to our wedding-day planner and the JOP. At least, that's my hope for the moment!
Lots of bills coming up in the next two months and it was NOT a good time to have my debit card compromised. I had to cancel the card, get a new one and set that one up with a new pin #. I just remembered I need to get my car registered too!!
