Finally Getting Married...

[wade moore]

I debated whether to post this here, but decided - what the hell.

After almost 10 years together, my fiance and I are finally getting married tomorrow.

It will be a small ceremony at the Wren Chapel at the College of William and Mary (300 year old building) with the officiant, me, my fiance, our parents, our brothers (we each have one), and their families.

Nice and small - but it is still a big moment in our lives - so it is exciting!

[stevew]

just don't get divorced or you'll have to change your screenname to wade less.

Congrats though.

[molson]

Great news, congrats.

The small wedding is always a classy move - it's about you and her, that's it, not a big party.

[King of New York]

I'm so there! And I'm bringing everyone I know!

You can kiss your small, private wedding goodbye.

Heh. I'll look for the guy camped in the bushes at each 2 hour interval of weddings to try and figure out which one has the smallest group ;).

It took us a long time to come to this decision and certainly some family and friends don't understand, but I'm happy with it. We're looking to move out of our house and into a much better one and having the money we would have spent on a wedding for that instead is fantastic.

Oh man, am I going to have to dig up that YT clip? Are you more scared if you know that neither of us had a drop of liquor?

Congrats, attention whore ;)

seriously congrats!

I would have been disappointed if you didn't say that :).

The timing was bad for doing a bachelor party. I think lordscarlet is still going to plan something for down the road with me and "the guys" - but I think we'll be going to Atlantic City so I'll miss out on the joy of virgina pastiness.




But yeah - thanks everyone. As much as this place can drive you crazy sometimes, it's still like a 2nd family.

Shows how smart you are. You shoulda first bet Jeter and Abreu you would get married before they do! :)

Congrats!

[PurdueBrad]

Wade, congrats. My wife and I did a very small ceremony as well and wouldn't change it for anything.

[Icy]

If we are talking about sex, he will be wade less as soon as he get's married :P

Big congrats mate!

[DaddyTorgo]

congrats wade!

[miami_fan]

Congrats!

[SunDevil]

Congrats.

[JetsIn06]

Congrats buddy. Have fun in up in AC whenever you go. If you need any suggestions I might be able to help you out.

[Ksyrup]

Congrats. I wish my wife would have been up for a small ceremony. Although we had an amazing wedding for $10K, I wish we had that money for other things.

[CraigSca]

Oh cool, congratulations Wade!

[Honolulu_Blue]

Congrats. Have a great time. Married life is definitely the way to go.

[sterlingice]

Congrats :)

SI

[Marc Vaughan]

Many congratulations ....

[cthomer5000]

I had no clue it was so soon. Congrats!

[WSUCougar]

Much happiness to you and the wife-to-be, Wade.

[Antmeister]

Congrats to you. 10 years is a good amount of time to know whether you are willing to go through this.

[Chief Rum]

I have been waiting for lordscarlet to show up and say, "Wow! Really? Congratulations!" :)

[kingnebwsu]

Congrats and good luck.

[M GO BLUE!!!]

What's your wife's name?

(I need to know who to send the sympathy card to!)

[3ric]

Congratulations!

[SackAttack]

I have been waiting for lordscarlet to show up and say, "Wow! Really? Congratulations!" :)

Well, considering wade said his brother and his fiancée's brother are both going to be there, either lordscarlet knows already, or wade's a helluva fibber. ;)

[JeeberD]

Congrats, wade! :)

In a funny twist SHE had to talk ME into it.


Again - thank you everyone!

[Raiders Army]

Great deal. Congratulations! Where are you going for your honeymoon? Some place special?

[wade moore]

Great deal. Congratulations! Where are you going for your honeymoon? Some place special?Nowhere as of yet.

We were going to take a fantastic trip to the S. Pacific. However, we started to realize how badly we wanted to get out of our current house. It is 75 years old and the person that lived here before us didn't take care of it at all so there are TONS of cosmetic problsm. After about a year and a half into it (coming up on 4 years) we got sick of trying fo fix the tons of problems. So, we kind of resent our house to an extent.

Anyway. So we decided that instead of spending 5-6k on a honeymoon we'd rather have that towards fixing up this house to sell, downpayment, whatever.

So. We may take a small trip this summer. She is a teacher, so it's hard for her to get time off outside of the summer and Spring Break. We may be packing to move during Spring Break.

[SteveMax58]

Congrats wade.

[BYU 14]

Congrats Wade, many happy years together!

[Flasch186]

wanna move to Florida? ;)









seriously

[wade moore]

A post on the WOOF forum made me remember that I didn't mention that it is also my birthday and my fiance's birthday.


No Flasch, I don't want to move to Florida ;). I think you know you're in the right town when you say, "man, I really want to retire here". I'm a Williamsburg nut.

Well, According to our new WR Jacksonville is NOT where you come to live the high life.....enticed?

[RedHawk00]

been married quite some time and love it and wouldnt want it any other way.
i hope you have the ceremony you two want and many years to enjoy each other. your plans for the future and purchasing a new house are an indication that you have your head on straight and looking forward to many years together.

best of luck

[BigDPW]

Congrats!

Sounds like a really good plan. If you guys have never been on a cruise, you can usually go for pretty cheap depending on what type of cabin you were looking for...and they're "all-inclusive".

[flere-imsaho]

Congratulations! Being married, to the right person, is really a lot of fun. :D

[Dutch]

...and they're "all-inclusive".

Meaning food, drinks, and sometimes the plague. :)


I'm guessing the 10 years together means there won't be too many surprises. Congrats, Wade!

[Celeval]

Congrats!

[Poli]

Congratulations!

[oliegirl]

Congrats! Lots of FOFC weddings these days! :D

[vtbub]

Is it too late to reconsider? :)

Congrats.

Well, yeah, that's the humorous side of it I was aiming for. ;)

[terpkristin]

Dang, I could've sworn that you got married BEFORE lordscarlet, was I ever wrong.

Congratulations, though. :)

I'm starting to get right there with you. I wish i would have spent 15-20k more(around here that goes a long way) and just bought something I didn't have to work on.

I'm tired of having to do stupid shit like replace outlets from 2 prong to 3 prong, etc. And the yard is still a clusterfuck.

[sterlingice]

I think there are only a couple of southern states where you can do that. And one of them would have to be female because you know how they are about same-sex marriages there ;)

I got engaged before him, so that may be where you got confused ;).

Exactly. This house really COULD be a gem, but I'm not willing to put the work to make it happen.

[wade moore]

So..

Wedding went well. It was nice and simple and went off without a hitch.

Maybe I'll post my first ever pictures on FOFC (granted LS has posted his pic before).

Belated congrats. I'm celebrating my 8th anniversary tomorrow (Yes, we got married on April Fools' Day). We actually dated for 6 years before that. I wanted the small wedding (her father offered us $20K to elope) and my wife wanted the big wedding. Shockingly, my wife won the battle. Either way, I married way above my head and it's the best thing I ever did.

Housing is super-cheap now. Getting a nice house right now is a great idea.

[Kodos]

Congratulations, Wade! I wish you many happy years together.

[King of New York]

Wade, where in Williamsburg would you like to move?

[wade moore]

Wade, where in Williamsburg would you like to move?

There's not necessarily a specific area that we're targetting. There's a price range we're targetting (300k-350k) with certain wants (relatively new, at least 4 BR's, in at least a relatively nice neighberhood). We're willing to go as far west as Toano if not even a little further.

Based on that there are actually quite a few areas that would fit the bill - right now Point @ Jamestown, Jamestown 100, and Springhill seem to be some of the top candidates.

Mine too. What a jerk. ;)

Congrats, although you've heard that from me already.

Happy belated birthday, guys. :)

[stevew]

Exactly. This house really COULD be a gem, but I'm not willing to put the work to make it happen.

I like where I live, and I can easily afford it. But every month it's something. And I live in constant fear of having to replace a furnace or the AC. I don't have a garage, which I would like. There is definitely a ton of potential here, but I'm not at a point in my life where I can just drop 2-3 grand at a time to make some improvements. I think I've done a fairly good job of furnishing this, considering we owned no appliances and minor furniture when we moved in. Ah well, I'll make do.

Springhill and Point @ Jamestown are nice--I'm not familiar with Jamestown 100. You can still get some great deals out in Toano.

And you're going to need at least four bedrooms because ... you plan on having three rooms devoted entirely to FOF? :)

Happy house hunting!

[Lorena]

LOL! :D
Happy belated birthday, guys. :)

/tk

Yeah, exactly, 3 birthdays and an annivesary on the same day?! Hah, that's pretty cool. Antmeister wanted us to get married 2 days after his birthday so he wouldn't forget our anniversary ;)

I'm a few days late, but congrats!!
