It's been a long time since I posted here. I'm the one with the engagement ring that looks like the Cookie Monster, and the suggestion that my two uncles who are priests arm-wrestle for who gets to perform the ceremony ( Read more... )

I just realized, I have nothing blue, borrowed or old! We don't have family heirlooms or trinkets for my something old or borrowed. The something blue could be easily solved by a garter or something.

I am really trying to incorporate the cultural and unique aspects that are us along with the typical American traditions.
