quite a bit of noise all aroud us. Not many people could hear the
wedding vows that Miranda and I put together.
Here is a transcript of the vows that were said....

If it were not for Miranda, this wedding would have never happened.
...sure, I helped too by asking her to marry me, but we never planned
on getting our wedding for FREE! Yep, that's right....Free. When I
proposed to Miranda, we thought we should have a wedding around the 1st
of May. Only 5 months away, it was still kind of a short notice.
In late January, Miranda heard a contest on a local radio station, 101.5 FM...
"101-5 the Point and the Bay Area Renaissance Festival are teaming up to give away a Fantasy Wedding! Simply tell us in 50 words or less why you should win this wedding!"
So she entered.....and WON!! |

the story behind Mark's proposal, since so many people have asked me how it happened...
actually,
it's sort of a long story...one thing is for sure; if we ever have kids
and grandkids, we definitely have an interesting story to tell:
i
have to preface by saying that over the past four years when people
have asked why we haven't gotten married, we've always said that we
don't need a piece of paper to acknowledge our love and to "prove" that
we're together. i've been divorced and Mark can be rather
anti-establishment. since we're SO together, it hasn't really been an
issue. and neither of us ascribe to any religions that "require"
marriage.
however, as our relationship has progressed, things
have come up that have made me realize that from a legal standpoint,
being a married couple has certain advantages.
and of course, after 4 years together it just started to seem like the natural progression in our relationship...
