We just watched Vel and Chas get married... it was wonderful, from the lovely weather, to the sounds of the wildlife, to the awesome minister, to the utterly *beautiful* bride and handsome groom

I love it that the Internet can be used to bring friends together across long distances and this is even more amazing and wonderful! Sometimes it makes my job seem worth it despite the spammers and viruses and hackers.
It was wonderful! We had the monitor set up like a wedding altar (draped with a wedding obi no less!), with fresh flowers and all, and we threw rice at the monitor when they were pronounced man and wife. It was great to be there, in such a way as we could be. ♥
this (and the comment below, about decorating the TV) made me tear up when I first read it. ♥ I am so glad that you guys could be there, and I'm honoured that you treasured being there so much. ♥
(Also: my dad concluded his speech at the garden tea with "live long and prosper" and the ENTIRE ROOM made the vulcan sign as they toasted. :D)
Mwee, I'm so glad you liked it. You worked so hard to make sure we could be there -- it was an honour to be invited in such a lovely and gracious way, and so exciting to watch you be married. Especially since we couldn't be there the way we *wanted* to be. ^^;;
Your dad gains awesome points every time I hear about him. :D And you can tell him I said that. ♥
I want to get a transcript of his speech and post it on my livejournal, because I think it needs to be shared with the world! (There was a World of Warcraft shout out as well, which my IRL guildmates enjoyed muchly!)
I will tell him you said that... when he gets back from holiday! I dropped him and mum off at the airport at 4am this morning (yes, that's only four hours ago) and they are off to France for a month. (Yeah, I'm the shmuck that has to pick them up again at the other end, thankfully only at 1am this time)
*SQUEES* So this year Wincon is having a prom, and I am 95% going to take my wedding dress to wear. So you have a 95% chance of seeing it in person! :D
