Who gives this woman?

Well, for better or for worse, the deed is done.

There are lots of stories to tell. Like the final disposition of my outfit, the presence of a certain purple striped monkey, how the bride ended up on her duff in the middle of the reception hall right before the ceremony, how the ring bearer and the flower girl wouldn't let go of each other's hands. These things always have that. It's what makes them worth all the dress up and bother.

The bridesmaids/grooms came in to Dearly Beloved from Kingdom Hearts 358/2, the bride marched in to the first 40 seconds of March Caprisce for Piano and Orchestra and everyone left to the rest of it.

At times I didn't know whether to scratch my watch or wind my backside. There seemed like it was problem after problem. I was going insane the whole day. But once they put the names on the paper I figured the rest was gravy. And thanks to the grace of a great many people who stepped in to help, when zero hour came it all somehow worked out. They have walked the walk and said the words. Here's a couple shots:

The Cake

I'll have more to say once I've had ten seconds to think. I've still got family in town and I honestly don't know what I think about this. My little girl is now a Mrs. Someone. And while Someone is a nice kid, he's still got my baby and I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I pray they live as long as they love, and love as long as they live.

Congratulations momgamer! I'm sure all your hard work was much appreciated by the bride and groom, if nobody else. They certainly look radiant!

Congrats!

Gratz!

Congratulations to the new married couple. Now that the big day was successful, you can take a small breather.

Congratulations!

Congrats to the newlyweds, and to you as well for being a big part in helping them through the first part of their new life.

Congratulations

Congratulations to the charming couple!

Congratulations on the new addition to your family. Hopefully you won't have many 5am wakeup calls with this one.

HUGE congrats momgamer. While I know you'd rather not have the continued 5am wakeup calls, eventually(hopefully on my part perhaps?) they'll have little ones, and come to visit, and you'll get that all over again.

Gorgeous cake, gorgeous dress, and I'll add my wishes to the others.

woohoo.

Congrats to you and yours momgamer!

Congrats!

Any chances of changing the tag to "grandmagamer" soon?

Well, regardless of any conflicted emotions, congrats!

As an aside, it's only a matter of time until I find out someone got hitched with the "Truth and Reconciliation Suite" as their theme, isn't it?

Congrats to the family! Take solace in you won't have to do it again.

I think she has another dauhter a few years youner...(stupid bad key on keyboard!)

Congrats! Your daughter looks radiant, and I love the choice of processional music. That cake topper isn't half bad either.

Congratulations! Looks like it was a beautiful ceremony. You got some good pictures too! In recent times I have found that to be exceedingly difficult, since people seem to always perform weddings in caves.

May her first child be a masculine one!

All the best, Momgamer!

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED!

All the best to your family! Cent' anni

Just think of this dude as another permanent band member you can press into service for Beatles Rock Band.

Please see below for real post.

This one is a ruse!

The thought of my own mother-in-law "forcing" me to play Beatles Rock Band actually brings a tear of joy to my eye. What a lucky guy. But alas, I did not marry into Momgamer's family.

Congrats!

DING! Congrats!

Congrats!

Meanwhile, Bordone can't wait until his son and daughter get the hell out of my house. Only 15 and 17 more years and then it's luggage and the title to their car for a graduation present.

Well done!

Congratulations to you and the young couple.

Now to get the rest of the House Apes married off, eh?

Congrats. You gave a beautiful bride to a lucky man.

Who is the young Ranger escorting the bride?
