I can has married!

Woot! I am now a married woman!

In case you missed the webcam action, [livejournal.com profile] theosakakoneko took some awesome pictures from the webcam here. Stephanie, my roommate, took really professional wedding pictures, which will come later.

The wedding was at 10:30am. We got there at 9, and finished the paperwork by 9:30, so we walked down the street and had a nice quiet breakfast. Then we dressed up:
(picture from Jono's night-before post). My outfit was pretty much a compilation from eBay. Jono's is mostly from Japan-town and a rented tux.

We ended up starting about 50 minutes late because Jono's family got lost on the way to the county office (it apparently doesn't have an address that the GPS could recognize, so then ended up on a small street about 3 towns north of everyone. But they got there eventually. Aleksa, Jono's sister, walked in first as flower girl. Then the commissioner got us to say the standard "I Do"s, and then we got to say our own wedding vows:

Jono: Sushu, Today I give myself to you in marriage.
Sushu: Jono, Today I give myself to you in marriage.
J: You are my one true love and companion
S: You are my one true love and companion.

J: We will treasure the feelings from this day
S: and remember them when things are hard.
J: We will share our joys and troubles with each other,
S: and remain faithful and honest to each other in good times and bad.
J: We will go on adventures together
S: but also enjoy the simple pleasure of each other's company
J: We promise to keep learning new things for our whole lives
S: and share them with each other to grow as people.
J: I will treat your family as my own
S: I will respect and take care of your parents.
J: We will trust each other with everything
S: and work through all difficulties together.

J: These things I give to you today, and all the days of our life.
S: These things I give to you today, and all the days of our life.

And then we kissed and then went outside to take lots of pictures.

Oh, here's a picture of the ring that we designed:

It's a single band woven around itself to form an "x" shape. We got it done by a sweet lady on Etsy

Yay!! :D

Yes, I watched it just fine!

I got to listen to Stephanie's awkward conversations with the little old lady, and the crazy directions to get Jono's family to the place. But more importantly, I heard every word you and Jono said in the ceremony, and it was really touching. I can't wait to see the happy (married) couple!

I'll be there! Guac in hand, and also some home-made bread, which might be a bit dense. The yeast are lazy today.

Np... just so you know, he emailed 9 days ago to say he didn't know about dates, but hasn't emailed since... so I'm not sure if he's showing up, but he's welcome if he does!
