My heartfelt thanks

Ok, so I'm going to attempt to sit and write some of this out...

When the day started, we were already half-way behind...we had planned on getting most of the decorating and things set up Friday, but other people had other plans...so we were left trying to get everything done Saturday morning...which I must say we managed to accomplish rather well, in spite of some people who I won't go into here.
There are so many people I can never thank enough, but you know that won't stop me from trying, so in no particular order at all!!

M's Mom, for doing all the bouquets, decorating the arch, other decorations, taking M shopping, hosting the event at her house (and a thank you to J for that also!), not to mention giving birth to my wonderful wife :biggrin words could never suffice...

Cheryl, who without her 'contacts' we would not have had 1/2 the shit we did! (cake, grill, food, etc...) THANK YOU so much!!

Ran, who kept us all sane (not to mention picked Cheryls brain for us :lol) organized everything and kept certain people from being where they didn't belong (yes, I heard about that, and have the picture to prove it!) stood beside me as a sister and friend, I love you chica!

Beth, who stepped up to the plate...she knows what I'm talking about if she reads this, and graciously stepped into the roll we hadn't prepared for...you made a cute ringbearer gal :kisses and I thank you so much for everything you did for us. Expecially for that one line..."your family IS here"...I so needed to hear that.

L and her husband, who graciously offered the use of the grill when we discovered we didn't have one after all! don't worry 'Dickie' your secrets safe with us :wink

Linda, who provided so much for us to use...tables, chairs, dishes...loaded it all up in her car and brought it over without so much as a thought, even though it took her 3-4 trips. You're the bomb!!

LK, who did our 'bachlorette party' and hooked us up with her dad for the food. She didn't have to, but we're extremely grateful that she did!

Jet, who even though she couldn't be here, still managed to brave the miles to get the arch and unity candle for us.

Kat and her girlfriend (who's name escapes me now) who took the day off to come help us capture our memories on film.

My wonderful uncle, for thinking when my brain was fried, and thought to bring awnings and unbrellas, provided an arm to lean on, and did his best to remind me that not everyone in my family has issues with me being who I am.

Lynn, for writting and agreeing to perform a beautiful ceremony...it was perfect, and I thank you for accepting from the bottom of my heart. Even though she had never done a same sex ceremony before, I think she did a beautiful job and hope she gets the opportunity to do more! (yes, I have her number if anyone needs it :smile )

to anyone whom I've forgotten (I'm truely sorry if I did!) but thank you, from the bottom of my heart for being there for our day. You all mean the world to M and I, we just hope that we're able to show that in some small way.

Oh, and some pictures have been posted at the Photo Blog
