On the up: Marriage ceremoniesOn the down: My fear of commitmentThis is waaaaaaaaaay over due - they got married more than a month ago... but okay, hey they're gonna be married for awhile yet, so never too late!
Vera and Ed got registered at Tien Hou Temple in the middle of the hottest day of the year. Heck, I didn't even know people got married there, but there's this whole marriage registrationg office and everything. Get married under the Buddhas, sweet!
Ed got Vera the most ENORMOUS bouquet of flowers, which totally kicks ass over all the other piddly pathetic tiny handheld bouquest. Big is better. Definitely. See look, it's even bigger than Vera!
There were a few other sad looking underfed brides walking around who looked completely miserable. Like gee, isn't this supposed to be a happy day?
But there's good in everything, and it's always good to have ugly people so that you look all the better. So Vera was trulymadlydeeply the most fantastic bride there that day.
Edward still looked underwhelmed. Like, nothing surprises him man. He's always just chiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiilling. He always looks like he's just smoked some weed and listening to some invisible Bob Marley, even when he's just about to go get married. He is absolutely The Dude.
Well, did you know you have to take a number and wait your turn, even when you're getting married?! It's like some kind of lucrative banking business or something. Gee!
Anyhoos, it was finally Vera and Ed's turn and I swear, I wasn't even the one getting married but it freaked me out just going into that office (fear of commitment issues, I know). Look how serious it looks; I mean, even Vera was being totally serious man!!!!!
But...
CONGRATS!!!!!!!! You're now married!!!! Huzzah!!!!!!And well, we don't need any excuse to be camera whores, but this was as good an opportunity as any to run around a temple and pose pretty.
But.
There's this strange sort of ruling that dictates that married people always look better in wedding photos than the unmarrieds... So just to give the rest of us some face, I won't post our ugly shots.
But don't Ed and V look super gorgeous!! (Note: Ed still looks like he's on holiday. Just coooooooool. He is the most unruffled, zen, chilled-out groom I have ever met)
Ohmygod, this last one is so romantic it almost makes me break out in hives!!!!!! (but very the cute also lar)
Congrats darlinks! MUAKS
Even this huge commitment-phobe is super happy for you both. The only thing that will make it better is some huge fluffy white fatty cake!
