The simplest, and perhaps, most understated way to put such a milestone. Understatement aside, we couldn't be more excited for the big day and to share it with each of you. Unless, of course, if you have happened upon our blog accidentally, then you are not invited.
If this is your first time visiting the blog, you’ve probably been directed by the save-the-date. Welcome! Please curb unwanted expectations of nuanced prose, grammar, and complete sentences. If it’s not your first time visiting, you're either family or one of the few friends that actually read our Thailand Blog. Welcome back! Your expectations are right where they need to be – tempered. Furthermore, I hope you can excuse a tinge of sarcasm. I could have written it differently, but then this wouldn’t be fun for either of us.
In this day and age, it seems incomprehensible (read: inconvenient) to conduct a wedding without the accompaniment of a webpage. This, friends, is that webpage. Your one-stop-shop for all that you need to know about our big day. However, we’re taking a slightly different approach from the standard webpage – we’re writing a blog. Does that make us more interesting or edgy than your average couple? Probably not. Our edginess is primarily derived from our rebellious, live by the seat of our pants lifestyle, like Friday nights “in” and TV marathons. Back to the blog, who needs handy links, a well organized sight map, or the other accoutrements of a standard webpage, when you can write things on a running list of diary like entries? Not us.
However, friends, I promise that our lack of webpage organization is not foreshadowing a disorganized event. How can I make this proclamation? I am in charge of the blog. Angela is in charge of the wedding. What I may lack in organization, Angela does not. This is one of the many reasons that I’m getting the better deal in this union. Or, to err on the side of unity and partnership, this is one of the many reasons it’ll be a good marriage.
Other complementary qualities include:
Big vs. Small
Procrastinator vs. Diligently Prepared
Athletic vs. Theatrical
Stubborn vs., well, Stubborn (that one doesn’t work)
At any rate, the following entries should help you prepare logistics for our big day. Alternatively, you can stop reading and show up unprepared. Like my favorite childhood books, Chose Your Own Adventure, and we’ll take care of the important stuff. Keep in mind this blog will be updated as the date nears, so please check back in a couple of months.
Thanks for reading this far. I knew there was a reason we invited you; aside from your literacy, the many years of love, laughter, and friendship that we’ve shared.
See you in June,
Angela and Jon
