I said, in the post before this one, that one of the American Gothic Chicks had gotten married. It was a birthday present.
No, really, it was.
Her dear love ( a great man ) surprised her with a trip to a romantic location. Before he picked her up, he went shopping. He got a white dress, some shoes and a beautiful pashmina. During this shopping trip, he was frantically texting Val.. who was online with me… for advice about size, items needed and what in the name of heaven was a pashmina anyway. Neither Val, nor I knew that the items were needed for a wedding. The rat didn’t tell US either.
We did, however, speculate on just why it had to be a white dress.
They were married on the beach, at sunset. I’ve got some great pictures, but I can’t post them… as I’ve not asked permission.
It’s not the official wedding, as he’d have had to gotten her to sign a licence and that would have spoiled the surprise factor of the trip.
Val and I are trying to figure out the best time for them to throw the reception/formal wedding. What? You think V. as the bride should decide such things? Okay, yah, and probably Mr. V will have to have some input as well…
Anyway. We’ve discussed the fact that I will be out of Houston the last weekend in may for the Chicago Spring Fling , and so, I could combine or extend that trip to include the one to the wedding. At this point, WE don’t even know what state the formal ceremony will be.
I wonder if we could lobby for a Vegas vacations package. Vegas is really cheap to fly to and easy to find a flight for, from just about anywhere. Naaaahhh…
I’m hoping for California….but Ohio or Michigan would be okay too.
