But there are still some very important questions that we can wager on.
1) There first child's date of birth. I know this depends on the wedding date, which they may or may not have discussed via code. Lets go with years or months after wedding. Longshots are mostly less than 9 months or over 5 years, though Never is popular.
2) Will Bob and DKW still chat cutely on Hatrack in their private code after they are married and living in the same house?
3) Bob, lived in Florida, moved to Texas, will he take the nightmare plunge and move up to where they actually have 4 seasons per year?
4) Dana, dedicated minister. How many weeks before Bob forces her to use language unbecoming a woman of the cloth, and I don't mean in a good way.
Other bets?

There are three seasons in Texas: Hot, going from hot to cold, and Cold. Cold happens completely abruptly.

No, I tried to make #4 not what you are implying. I mean how long intil Dana get so mad at Bob that she curses.
Shame on you for thinking otherwise.

Bev, I've lived in Oklahoma which is north of TX and therefore generally colder (excluding both panhandles which as we all know don't count for anything)
I now live in Illinois.
I repeat there is no cold in TX

Lets decipher this. 60 Degrees Farenheit is not cold. 50 Degrees is not cold 40 Degrees is not cold. 30 Degrees is chilly. 20 Degrees is Brisk 10 Degrees is cold 0 Degree is Very cold -30 is Average Iowa Winter.

Sorry Narnia, I was trying to explain that Cold in Texas is not the same as Cold in Iowa. Cold in Texas is, "Gee, a jacket would have been a good idea." Cold in Iowa is having the words freeze to the roof of your mouth cold.
Posted by beverly (Member # 6246) on :
Ok, AJ, on those terms I will have to agree with you. I have lived in many states including Connecticut, Washington St. (actually not very cold), and Indiana (I was very young) and Texas cold ain't northern cold. But if you define cold as freezing or below (my definition) then it does fit.

Sorry, Dan, I guess I better get my mind out of the gutter. Posted by mr_porteiro_head (Member # 4644) on :
BanaOj -- I lived in OK and in the TX panhandle. We got a lot more snow in TX than in OK.
Where in OK did you live?
Posted by BannaOj (Member # 3206) on :
I did qualify that the panhandles don't count mainly because they are more BFE than the rest of the two states which both have more than enough BFE as it is <grin>
I lived in Norman, OK for five years of college.
I will agree that Norman is colder than Oxnard, CA my birthplace. It is also considerably hotter.

I can just picture that... so cute. What impresses me is that she swears, yet doesn't break the third commandment. (Everytime I read that sentence it makes me break out in a smile. It shows how determined dkw can be not to fail.)
As for whether or not they stop speaking in code, I say they continue much to the chagrin of those who can't seem to break it. Doesn't make it any less cute though. Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
Okay, all kidding aside, the wedding will be April 2, 2005, in Ames, IA. And if you’ve been around Hatrack enough to consider yourself a friend to either or both of us, we’d like to have you there. We won’t be sending out formal invitations for a few months, and we’ll need addresses and such, but we can work out the details later. Mark your calendars now.

We're starting to worry that the hall we picked may be too small. We have to figure out the guest list -- mostly Dana & her mom will do that -- but we are most definitely counting on lots of Jatraqueros(as) attending. It wouldn't be the party we hope for without.
So, at this point, please save the date, y'all, and we'll figure out how to manage the attendance as we get more info together on the hall's capacity, options, etc.
Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
I’m not worried about fitting people in the church – it’s huge. The reception might be trickier. Walking distance from the church and wheelchair accessible are non-negotiable requirements. We may have to give up the idea of a sit-down dinner just so we can fit everybody in to one of the available options -- more friends there is a higher priority than formal table service.
Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :
Yep!
Anyone with experience in this sort of thing, feel free to chime in, btw. We're thinking of putting seating and small tables around the perimeter to clear a space for dancing and general milling around of the multitudes.
Is it a problem if, for example, there isn't one chair per person? Or maybe we have folding chairs that people can grab when they want one, and then we can sort of make a space when it's time to do "the white overbite" or the "grab your partner and sway back & forth".
(note: we'll be waltzing, but all other forms of dance are welcome.)
(except interpretive dances involving trees).
(no chicken dance...sorry)
Posted by Belle (Member # 2314) on :
If the formality isn't a big deal to you, then I would put folding chairs against the wall, let people pull them out as needed.
You'll need lots more room for milling around than you think. My experience with most wedding receptions that don't involve sit-down dinners are that most people stay on their feet, dancing, and socializing.
Having a few tables where folks can sit, and set down drinks and things is a good idea.

The Queer Eye For The Straight Guy consultant (Jai) says you should never have as many chairs as you have people, because you want to encourage mingling.

Oh, and also: I had a dream today about dkw and Bob_Scopatz's wedding. (yes, today, I took a nap) It was kind of sad for me, though, because nobody knew who I was (and those people who did know who I was didn't care). I guess today is what you would call a 'low self-esteem day'. Hehe. Also sad: I left CR at home. Alone. And he is six. Not a good dream. And for some reason, Bob was thinner and in a wheelchair. He was wearing some really nice black cargo pants, though.
I don't know where the Army will put us in the next few months, but if it's near Ames, IA; I trust that my dream was false, and I'll be both welcomed AND remembered? *whine*
And still stunned by the news.

If you have any special things you want served before dinner, make sure someone saves some of it for you. Kristine is stilled pissed off that all the chocolate covered strawberries were gone before we got to the reception.
And if you have a table just for the two of you, don't have it located right at the front of the buffet line.
Just because the photographer says he's going to get lots of candid photos, doesn't mean he's really going to do it.

We had a giant family to-do over videotaping the wedding. I did not want it tpaed. Taping the reception was OK, but I really think some things need to be left to memory, and I stuck to my guns. I still haven't regretted it. We did have the wedding photographed, but that was somehow OK with me.
Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :
Personally I get upset when you spend the majority of the "Most important day of your life" getting photos taken to "remember it by" and you don't spend any time doing anything worth remembering.
You are going to have loads of family, strange looking strangers, friends and parishoners all begging for a few moments of your time.
Make sure you set aside some time for yourself.
Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :
Try and get as many of those pictures out of the way before the ceremony - bride with her family and bridesmaids, groom with his family and groomsmen, etc.
If it's hot outside, kick mack if she suggests pictures of the two of you outside with Bob lifting you up or spinning you around. It's not an easy position to hold while she focuses her camera.
And if you need help, Dana, I've also helped plan bachelorette parties.

We're going to try very hard to be an exception to that rule.
On the other hand, we have the coolest photographer on the planet, so maybe we'll be okay with it.
Dana forgot to mention that we're going to need four chocolate fountains, one for each corner of the room.
Posted by Christy (Member # 4397) on :
Do all the photos before the wedding. This way you can enjoy your reception. Also, be sure to talk with the photographer about poses that you absolutely want. This helps eliminate disappointment later.
We had a lot of success with disposable cameras at the tables. They were expensive, but provided the best candid moments that you could capture. The photographer just isn't going to get those kinds of shots.

Um, would you believe that all the money taken in the pool was invested in high yeild stocks until payment could be made.
Unfortunately, those stocks included a high percentage of Ford, Chrysler, and Kerry Presidential Souvenier T-Shirts.
