Wow, that is different! But, interesting! Thank you very much for the detailed description...I'm so happy for you, and, I hope all works out well for the both of you and your families...

Can you imagine that in my parents' generation it was similar: my parents could not rent an apartment together before they were married but they felt they could not start a marriage before having a common place. So they married in 1952 legally and still lived with their parents, looked for their own apartment and then married in church

Pops, that is very different and very interesting way of marrying, and in my opinion a fine one. May much love and happiness be with you both on Sunday as you take those first steps on the path of life together.

Poppy, I think that is a wonderful way to start a marriage! I am really very happy for you. He sounds like a wonderful man, and you were both very lucky to find each other. I wish you the very best in your life and the future of your marriage.

He's in Massachusetts? Where's he studying? Bet it's close by us! (We are in Education Central here!) How exciting that he loves your tiels, and is an animal person, too! Sounds good to us, and you sound excited and in love!

Okay, if, in the intervening time between the marriage and the wedding, (or any other time) you end up visiting him in Massachusetts, and have a moment to spare, we'd love to meet you - one or both!

I am HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY for you!!!!!

Can't wait to catch up on the details soon!!!!

[wolflady]

Wow, that is so interesting! I can't believe that you're actually going to be legally married so soon, but still be apart and getting to know each other! LOL I really think it's a great way to start a relationship/marriage, though. It's no wonder that muslim marriages like yours must last a lifetime. Too bad more americans aren't that way. LOL

So, when will we finally be able to see a picture of the happy couple?!

**hugs**

Congrats! I guess after Sunday we'll have to start calling you Mrs. Pops When you have the big ceremony I hope we get to see some pictures. You have to at least show a few pictures of the decorations and such, I know you don't post pictures of yourself but I'm sure we'd even settle for a picture of you and your hubby with some blurred out faces! I bet the wedding is going to be beautiful.
