An Open Invitation

September 26, 2009, BuddyDank and I will be getting married in Ames, Iowa.

Yes, that is just over three months away, so I thought it would be a good idea to get this up sooner rather than later.

You are all invited. If anyone wants to make the trip down (or up?) for the wedding, email me (joanne1111@gmail.com) or Buddy (buddy@buddydank.com) or leave a comment and let us know.

General plan is this...

Friday night is the satellite. We will be going out as a group to party / have fun / whatever. Saturday is the actual Main Event, but at a nice respectable (gives-you-time-to-cure-your-hangover-and-get-ready-for-another-one) 4:00pm. Watch NumbBono give Joanada away. See if Buddy goes all in or folds.

Reception at 5:00 in the same location as the ceremony. See, no travel time. No 5-hour ceremony in Latin or any other obscure language. Considerate, eh? We thought so. Fun and games will ensue. Yes, there will be a web broadcast. There will be singing. (With the exception of the bride - you can thank me in advance.) There will be drinking and debauchery, but only after the grandparents have left the building.

I already have confirmation from several bloggers who are going to be attending, so if you are at all able to, please consider coming as we would love to see you there!
