Wow, congratulations!
Would have been a little tricky if she'd said no, wouldn't it?!

Damn. Did it run out of space, or go flat? A mate bought one recently from Kogan. Despite a full charge, he's only getting about 2 minutes recording out of it!
Anyway, I'm sure it didn't dent your happiness too much :)

Congratulations!
How did you get round the 1 month Notice of Intention to Marry? In NSW at least you need to give the celebrant one month's notice - is it different in QLD?
I took my first wedding on Sunday. A 91 bloke married an 80 woman.

I took my first wedding on Sunday. A 91 bloke married an 80 woman.
i knew i had to check what needed to be done legally but.............i only checked the website out 25 days prior. all cool as i had a work around
everything proceeded on the like any normal wedding. the celebrant could not say certain words on the day but that didn't bother me. we than signed a copy of a certificate so it al looked rigidig...
we are filling the paperwork out this week and will wait our 30 days:angel::angel:. we will than pop out for lunch with the celebrant so that she can say the legal bits and than we can sign the offical certificate
we will always celebrate our wedding on the 8th Dec......and probably have another little celebration on the date that our marriage certificate states
one tip......don't ring births, deaths and marriages and ask for an exemption to the rules........they instantly thought i was up to no good:nazilock: and gave me a roasting. they were not impressed when i mentioned i had a work around :cool:

Great way of doing it if it suits. Marriage is not about the legal document, so why let that change your wedding plans!!
I've had quite a few friends get married where it was not practical to do the legal stuff on the day - for various reasons - and I don't believe any of it was less special. Good stuff.
Edit: forgot the important bit: CONGRATS!!!!!!! :D :D

WOW!, it all come to plan hey, well done mate. I'm very happy for you and Wendy. Great to hear it was the best weekend ever. I think my wedding was as well for me.
I look forward to catching up and hearing about how you kept that ring out of the spot light for so long. Did Wendy ride up to the ceremony?
Congratulations to you both.

Congratulations dude, and dudette.
Farm and beach type weddings it seems are very special occasions, very relaxed in their settings. Went to one a few years ago, nice atmosphere, and then another a couple of weeks ago.
