So
by now you've all heard the little secret we had up our
sleeves for the past couple months ... not only was the
Saltwell Shaker planned to be a great party, it was also our
wedding!
In early June, after we realized that all
our immediate families and close friends were coming to the
party, Craig proposed that we get married at the same time. We
both agreed that it had to be top secret (you know how
weddings have a tendency to get out of control...). Between
that time and the party, we both went to a couple stags and
bridal showers and sat through numerous conversations about
wedding planning ... all the while snickering to ourselves! It
was too much fun! No one knew, not our parents or our best
friends, and the surprise was perfect! |

"Please don't flush anything weird into our septic
system, and ... oh yeah, we're getting married! Yes, right
now!" |
