Congratulations - I'm glad everything worked out well for you. That's a pretty expensive limo charge, but I'm sure it was worth it.

I've seen many grooms mess that up during the wedding itself; you learned that one early.

Congrats, NoSoup! Sounds like the important parts went off without a hitch

ShaniFaye · 11-04-2005, 05:30 AM

Thats fantastic, but jeezy creezy, 792 bucks for a limo? hehehehe

Im so happy for you both!!!

Now.....when is the date?

JustJess · 11-04-2005, 06:33 AM

Congratulations! That was an adorable story - makes me all mushy for Quadro all over again.

NoSoup · 11-06-2007, 12:57 AM

Well, It's finally happened - I'm old and married now >=)

After a two year engagement, we were wed on our 7th year anniversary, October 29th.

Here's a slideshow with pictures from the wedding - we got married in the Riviera Maya at the Grand Bahia Principe Resort - the reception is still to come - set for November 16th.

(Also, does anyone have any idea what the name and artist of the song in the background is? Any info would be much appreciated)

Good luck...when IS your anniversary?

OMG I laughed so hard I about peed my pants when I read that LoL! Thanks for the laugh.

How hubby gave me my ring (you can borrow/modify/ignore):
He came over to my house after working swing shift. He asked if I had any carrots, as he was in desperate need of some. I understand when you need an orange when your blood sugar takes a dive, but carrots? He explained it's about "beta carotene, sunshine, and being in love." I told him I thought he was nuts, but there were carrots in the fridge. He came back from the kitchen with a plate full of carrots, and offered me one numerous times. I finally conceded just so he'd stop. He handed me a carrot, and when I took a bite, I noticed that it was wearing my ring.

The_Jazz · 11-06-2007, 05:07 AM

Congratulations, NoSoup!

(sorry, no idea about the singer)

ShaniFaye · 11-06-2007, 05:15 AM

MrTia · 11-06-2007, 05:16 AM

Congrats, NoSoup!! Your pics/video are very nice... I just love seeing two people so happy together. (I also have a weakness for wedding pics in general!)

Man, did my husband consult with your husband before proposing, or what? Very similar story here, except it was a bag of M&M's (and I usually love chocolate, but wasn't in the mood for M&M's... but he kept offering them to me!! Finally, a ring appeared from the bag, hehe.)

analog · 11-06-2007, 12:29 PM

Good story. Not sure how I missed it the first time, but congrats!

ItWasMe · 11-06-2007, 08:21 PM

Love the slide show, NoSoap. Gorgeous everything. I've never understood about women crying and gushing over happy moments (and I am a woman), but it was a sweet story. Congradulations!

surferlove007 · 11-06-2007, 08:55 PM

I must say, that is so romantic! So happy for you guys! Congratulations and best wishes! Gosh that brought tears to my eyes. So Romantic! I would never expect anything that elaborate! Beautiful

We need pictures!

MSD · 11-20-2007, 08:58 PM

Next year, for your first wedding anniversary, you're going to hit her in the face with a cake, right?

NoSoup · 11-20-2007, 10:59 PM

Indeed - in fact, I smashed some of our wedding cake in her face

OzOz · 11-25-2007, 02:23 PM

Great story NoSoup.

I only just found this thread, and was going to congratulate you on your engagement - then suddenly you're telling us that you're married! I first thought that was quick, then realised you started the thread two years ago.

Anyway, the singer is Michael Buble, and the song is 'Everything'.
