TeeJay Posted February 4, 2009 Report Share Posted February 4, 2009 The wedding went incredibly, and although I didn't actually get many wrist shots, I'll upload the regular pics when I get the chance. I have one of my best men staying with us till the reception Sunday, and following that, we have Emily's dad's funeral, and a few meetings early in the week which might take up some time, so it might be a further week till I'm back on the forum properly, but just to let you all know that all went well, and much of that was down to advice from my bros here Many thanks, amigos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeeJay Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Thanks for the messages, guys, it's very mch appreciated, from both of us The photos won't get uploaded for a few days, as I want to wait till we see the reception pics as well, so you can see the best of the best, but, I will give you a little written spoiler of a watch shot I got yesterday: My GMTSub, resting on 12mm thick ice, over a 'wading pool' with a blue-painted base... It looks awesome, and I can't wait to share it with you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demsey Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Ahhhhhh, so starts the journey! God Speed John Glenn! Don't make the same mistake I did with my first wife T'J. We split up over silly religious differences; I thought of myself as God, and she didn't agree....... Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThinkBachs Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I know I'm a new guy here, so I hope you don't mind me throwing in a congratulations and a bit of advice. Never sweat the small stuff. so often many of us find ourselves getting caught up in obsessing over things that don't really matter, that we forget to appreciate the big picture. You've made a decision that has changed your life 1,3,5,10,20,50 years from now! We don't find a connection with someone else and make a decision like that without a reason. Use that reason to help you through those times that you may feel like running out the door and wanting to live in a cabin in the middle of nowhere.... OK, maybe that's just me. I've been married over 18 years and wouldn't change a thing. The one thing I've learned is that you can always learn from any mistake. Since I wasn't born perfect, I'm always grateful for having made and learned from a mistake. Together you'll be more than you could ever be on your own- and people that don't believe that are too selfish to understand or experience it. Cheers to you and your Bride!

szvwj Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Congratulations!! I'm so glad to hear it went well (I know it wasn't an easy process). Sorry, but I'm a bit behind. You said that Emily's dad passed away. Is that your wife's dad? I'm sorry for the loss. Wow, a lot has happened in your life in a short time. You might want to plan something fun for later this year so you don't get depressed after all of this excitement (my wife and I went through a bit of a depression after the excitement of the wedding, last September). So... did you buy your wife a watch as a wedding gift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew You've hit the nail right on the head here mate. 15th Anniversary for us this August and I totally agree with everything you said. Sure, my wife and I have had some real belters of arguments over the years, but we've always managed to sort it out. It is still quite simply the best thing I've ever done in my life. Congratulations to you and your wife TeeJay. I wish you both many, many years of happiness together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... did you buy your wife a watch as a wedding gift? Thanks, it certainly wasn't without it's hiccups to get things accomplished in time It was her biological father, and to be honest, he isn't missed Her step-father is the person who actually raised her, and it was her step-father's name which was put on the marriage licences and certificates There's still more to come At the end of May, we're going to Tokyo for a week, combining a late honeymoon, my wife's birthday, and my best friend's wedding, which is the day after the birthday... That said, it's going to be hard to top that No watch as a wedding gift I got her a hat, which was made specifically just for her, by Diva Zappa You've hit the nail right on the head here mate. 15th Anniversary for us this August and I totally agree with everything you said.
