The big reason things have been rather quiet on my site, is that Meghan and I got married. It’s not like a lot of things have changed; we’ve been together for a long time, and have lived together since August 2004. The big thing was that we decided to do this very last-minute. My sister and Meghan’s sister were in town here in the Sault at the same time, and this was not something that would be happening again for a while, so we decided to strike while the proverbial iron was hot.
I haven’t got any pictures to post, as they’re all on Meghan’s laptop and some still on other peoples’ memory cards, and I’m incredibly lazy.
We held the event in my parents’ backyard, and had a BBQ dinner afterwards. Anyway, it went off very smoothly, and it was a very enjoyable gathering. There were only about 15 in attendance which, I feel, was about perfect. I don’t like big crowds, and this way I got to talk to everyone.
The ceremony itself was a non-denominational handfasting with distinctly pagan undertones. I think all in attendance agreed that it was quite lovely.
Due to the last-minute nature of the event, we’ve also decided to schedule a more formal reception in early September for the benefit of my extended family and other friends who were not in attendance the first time.
So that’s about it. Hopefully I will post some pictures sometime, but don’t hold your breath on that one. Remember what I said about my new house? Yeah, that.
