What's happened since the proposal

December 08, 2005

Attempting to kiss our way through wedding planning stress

Thanks (to family and friends...and to others who took the time to write) for being so encouraging to Elizabeth and me. Let me answer the three questions that I'm sure are keeping you up at night:

When is the wedding? February 18, 2006.

Where is the honeymoon? You blew us away with your helpful recommendations. Thank you. (Although you made it difficult to pick just one.) You suggested locations on every continent (someone thought Antarctica would limit my web usage).

The three most frequent recommendations:
#1  Hawaii
#2  Italy (with emphasis on Tuscany)
#3  New Zealand

We've decided to follow the wisdom of crowds and go to the location that was recommended most often: Hawaii. We'll spend one week on Kauai and one week on Maui.

Can I watch any of this? No (I'm sorry to disappoint those who suggested a webcam at the wedding or honeymoon). However, since our wedding will be so small, we are having a "Celebration" dance party on the evening of May 6, and we'd love to have all our family and friends join us (even if we've been out of touch). Please email me for details.

3. What a wonderful site. I really enjoyed reading how Dave Loves Elizabeth. I hope that the two of you have many happy years together. My wonderful Georgie and I celebrated 23 years together in December and I am looking forward to the next 23. My God bless the two of you. And no matter what anyone says, The honeymoon never has to end.

5. Dave, Dave, Dave!
   You spent more time preparing your proposal than my husband and I had between meeting and marriage!
   Well done. Could you redo our web page, it needs some spark?
   It's great to see your creativity focused on such a star! - a quantum leap from that Walter-what's his name-football-guy Fan Club.
