WE DID IT!!!!!! Splsh & I 'took the plunge' & eloped on Saturday, July 18, 1998....though it was more a wade than a plunge. *G* We had already dedicated ouselves to each other, and were we not totally prepared for the ceremony itself, my feeling is that NO couple ever will be...spiritually, emotionally, & mentally prepared, *maybe* Check out the following links
for the rest of the story & find how UNPREPARED I
found I was--materially??? physically????--no matter
*how* much I had prepared! Which I guess goes to show
that you can NEVER be *totally* prepared?!?!??! (But,
boo-boos add a lil spice to life, right???) *BG*
SlvrSplsh & I eloped (legal marriage), but we felt our union incomplete without uniting/bonding in a religious/spiritual ceremony as well. On October 13, 2000, we were finally able to be Handfasted! Due to ongoing crises & graduate school work, I haven't gotten those pictures on the web yet....but keep a watch here for the link to our Handfasting pages when they're done!!!!! :>

Our elopement | preparation for the trip (or *attempted* preparation) our arrival our ceremony & vows wedding pics!!!!! dinner/dance cruise home again, home again, jiggidy jog! |
There you have it...the WHOLE
story. We went from 'everything seems right' to 'mission
impossible' to 'by george we did it anyway'! And ya know, it was incredibly AWESOME--in *spite* of everything....or perhaps it was BECAUSE of everything??? |
