As of about 1240 EST on 11 October 2003, at All Saints Church in Manassas, Virginia...
Colleen and I were wed.
You couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.
Any and all hiccups were invisible to all the guests.
The reception went off perfectly.
Pictures at the gazebo were magical with unexpected sunshine.
Justine the flower girl was adorable and precious.
Now I'm wearing the ring...
Funny, it doesn't feel quite so different just yet... but it's a great feeling.
Best memories:
Colleen at the head of the aisle, looking absolutely radiant.
Relatives that I haven't seen in years being there.
Iain's wonderful (and highly unexpected) words.
Colleen singing to me from the stage.
Now, some words to my friends...
Iain: Thanks for being there. You made it that much more special for us. People have asked if we were brothers. If we're not brothers physically, we're most likely brothers in spirit. Thanks again.
Yau: We're all sorry you couldn't be there. You were very much on our minds. So much so, we had put in a prayer to all the servicemen and women, especially those who couldn't be there, into the Prayers of the Faithful. For some reason though, it wasn't said, but we had it in our hearts. You'll be getting a program, bookmark and napkin from Iain in the very near future.
All my friends who will hopefully be there at the Renewal on Saturday 18 October: We'll see you there, and we'll be sure to hang for a good while.
Biggest moment of my life... and the universe was as close to perfect as it could get.

We'll send you stuff too... CDs of the pictures, maybe even a copy of the wedding DVD. Iain's got stuff he'll be sending you.
Keep safe, Bro.
Come back alive or we're gonna kill you :)
