Keeping very small and informal. UU Minister, two witnesses and then dinner at a nice restaurant.
Both of us are walking on clouds today.

She has saved my life 3 times, she's an RN and I saved her from crazy relatives by moving her out of state.
We've live together for about 5 years and those have been the best for both of us.

Good luck! Though i don't expect you to need it...

A small intimate ceremony and dinner is perfect, and meaningful.

That's what my neighbors did (after 10 years and 2 kids) and I'm looking forward to the party. I might even buy the cake.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
