... will be a very special date for two gimp chat members, and in some way also for gimp chat.


Image

this is, to the best of my knowledge, the first wedding brought on by gimp chat! the distinguished, coffee drinking, english gentleman (that would be erisian) will be marrying the tea drinking bollywood freak of a viking woman (that would be anmal). wish we had unlimited funds, then we would invite you all! as it is, we can't even promise you a slice each of our wedding cake, much as you all deserve it :(.

now, if you're wondering where anmal went to i'm sure you have your answer! she's sucked up in the planning of a (largely diy) wedding, making her jewellery and gown and ordering friends and family about. and if erisian isn't on as much as he used to, he's probably out hunting for shirts and ties in the right shades or vegetarian wedding food recipes or something. we're still gimping, though at a much slower rate than we used to - who would have thought getting married was this preoccupying?! :hehe

Hi AnMal. Funds do not make the day... it's the atmosphere of the occassion that counts. Congrats! I hope you stream the event.

My best congratulations, Anmal & Erisian !
A very nice couple.

If you will celebrate at that date you posted, I cannot forget it: it's my birthday....

I was just wondering why Anmal was so silent during the last period; now it's clear!

A warm embrace to both of you!

Thank you all for your nice comments. To think that once-upon-a-time I believed I would never find reason enough to leave England!

AnMal: Congratulations to both of you. I wish you joy and happiness. Oh, will your wedding gown be of satin and lace overlay with beaded paisleys?

BTW we did miss you here. Need to continue the paisley thread!

thank you everyone :ffy
O: we liked the song - i had never heard of noel paul stookey before.
oldmangrumpy: thanks, brother! we're een happier :hehe
wallace: thank you brother! where do you find those smileys?! that one was soo cute!
pat625:: hehe, beaded paisleys sound just right! we'll see how much bead embroidery i have the energy for.
moko: :hugme thank you sis! erisian keeps insisting he's a distinguished english gentleman, so that's his own words - i can't tell you if it's accurate or not because i don't want to be left by the altar...
yep, i'm making my own dress. or rather the skirt half of it. i have a pattern based on an indian wedding lehenga and i have started embellishing the fabric for it - i do wish you were here in sweden, then we could have a nice girly talk about all the details when erisian can't hear, he's not supposed to see it before the day!

You're welcome!

I joined a emoticon group on deviantArt.
In hopes of learning how to create my own emoticon.
I've obtained most, if not all of them from there.
I've also managed to make a few of them myself.

Well now! You must be able to voice your opinion, if he wants to prove he is a distinguished English gentleman, he won't be able to leave you anywhere! ;)


Gotta love those nice girly talks. :lol
From the hinted information, it sounds lovely! And unique.
Exciting to think about. :cool
