I'm getting married...
 

Thanks to REF 74 I can now marry my partner of 21 years. When we called our local county newspaper to ask about their policy on same-sex engagement notices they said " no one has ever asked before...send your information in". We did but a reporter took it one step further and called for a short interview saying they would like to do a story. It became the top story in this week's edition (slow news week?)

I thought it was kind of cool and progressive of them.

I wish you both a long, happy life.^

Congrats ^... Finally people can live happily ever after. ^

^ Nice one! I got engaged (spontaneously) in the same country. :)

Congratulations and best wishes.

Congrats!

Congratulations and much happiness to you both. Well done to Richard Oxley for recognizing and writing a nice story.

Congrats. Thanks for sharing the the story. ^

Congrats on your impending nuptials, david! Who cares if it was a slow news week? I think we'd all like to see more coverage of happy events and what could be happier than happy couples tying the knot? :)

Congrats and all the best! ^

Congratulations! Best wishes to you both.

Congrats!!

May you never need that other right you just got, divorce. :D


But seriously, this is a great event in American history, and you should be proud to be participating in it.

^^

Congratulations!

I never attend weddings, I can't stand seeing the groom settle for second best. :p

YAY! Have you set a date?

As this topic appeals to the broader FT community let's reposition this thread in CommunityBuzz for all to see. :)

& thanks for sharing your lovely story with us!

Congratulations! ^

A long and happy life together.

Congratulations! I married my partner of 21 years at San Francisco city hall. I'm still waiting for it to become fully legal in California. ^

It saddens me to think that some people would ever dream to block happy things like this.

Congrats to both of you - such a heartwarming story!

My mother has been a long time "hag/fruit fly/other term for a lover of gays" and this past October she officiated the marriage of two of our friends that have been together exactly how long my parents have been married. It was a small but fun wedding. Good luck and more power to you.
My life wouldn't be the same without all the gay "uncles" my brother and I had growing up so don't let anyone tell you it's any less meaningful.

Thanks for posting OP! Congratulations to you both! At least we got something right in WA state in this election. A long and happy life to you.

And thanks for REF 502 you can serve pot legally too at the reception. :p

This gives new meaning to the bible quote:

Leviticus 20:13 – “if a man lays with another man, as with a woman, he should be stoned.”

Amen.

Congratulations!

Good stuff. I wish both of you the best!
