    Getting Married :D

    So after having been engaged for over 3 years, we finally have a date We're getting married August 7th, so in less than a month. My SO is here visiting me, he arrived early June and we went travelling interstate and realised we were wasting our time if he went back home (also the heartbreaking separation thing). So we're currently trying to work out a VISA app so he can stay forever. Last week we went in and submitted our Intent to Marry form, and next month we're having a simple wedding at the registry office. Immediate family, close friends. Followed by a dinner that night.

    We're very lucky in that my mum has offered to pay for pretty much everything, with a bit of help from my dad. We've only had to pay the registry fee. But we can't afford much anyway. My mum's going to buy me a dress, but we'll be paying for a suit for my SO, and some cheap temporary rings for the day. It's exciting but stressful because there's so much going on otherwise, but I'm really excited about finally being married and hopefully getting to be forever with my SO. It's been such a long time coming.
    Together since: Feb 23rd 2005.
    First met: June 13th 2006

    congratulations
    I made love to him only twice, she thought and looked at the man laying asleep beside her. And yet still it is as if we have been together forever, as if he has always known my life, my soul, my body, my light, my pain

        It'll take a lot more than words and guns
        A whole lot more than riches and muscle
        The hands of the many must join as one
        And together we'll cross the river
