As Miss Gingerbread shared with us, same-sex couples now have the right to get married in California. I know that Mrs. Blueberry already shared the rumor that Ellen DeGeneres was getting married, but I wanted to share, if you haven’t heard already, that Ellen formally announced her engagement to long time girlfriend, Portia de Rossi.

After our walk up the marketplace from the church to our reception, all our guests were greeted by Amaretto Sours. Our cocktail hour was held outside on the patio in front of the restaurant. Our guitarist, Brendan Burns, was there to set the mood playing wonderful jazz standards and people really began to enjoy the party.
Mr. Onion and I steal a quick kiss as we enjoy our drink. Read more…

Sugar Lip Treatment by Fresh is one of my favorite skin care products. I was first introduced to Fresh from their perfume (which I wore on my wedding day). Some girls wear many different perfumes — I wear one every day, and that is Fresh Sugar. Read more…

After we had a little time with our friends and family outside the church, we led a processional of all our guests up the Church Street Marketplace. Fun fact: downtown Burlington, VT was designed by the same people who designed downtown Boulder, CO (known as Pearl Street Mall).

Like Mrs. Bee, we haven’t ordered our wedding photo album yet. We were married almost 7 months ago and for the last few months our 1900+ photo proofs have been sitting our our sideboard waiting for me to prioritize them.

After we came down the isle as husband and wife, we had an impromptu receiving line. We didn’t plan a formal receiving line, but as our guests came out of the church they stopped to hug and congratulate us.
We had a few moments before everyone made it outside so we enjoyed some time together. Read more…

After our readings and lovely song came the rest of the ceremony. Our minister gave a declaration of intention about what marriage means, then she asked our family and friends for a pledge of support — to support us and share with us…and to babysit someday! It got a laugh for sure. Then it was on to the vows.
First it was Mr. Onion’s turn. He was so calm and eloquent (yes we read them from a paper our minister had for us — we didn’t want to add memorizing them to the mix of nerves). Read more…

Ok, you’re thinking, “Mrs. Onion… didn’t you just get married?” Why yes I did — just six months ago. So why am I talking about our 1 year anniversary already (other than I’m excited to eat our cake that has been safely in MIL Onion’s freezer since September)? Yesterday I got an email from the manager at the Willard Street Inn where we stayed for the weekend of the wedding.

After I had my big walk down the isle our minister began by welcoming all our guests. After her introduction we had both of our mothers do a reading.
I love that I’m just grinning at Mr. Onion here. I was so excited. Read more…
