You mean you and gammer are getting hitched? Congrats! Did you guys meet at a meetup or otherwise bond over MeFi or was it coincidence you both used it?

Wow. Matt. Damn fine catch; yes on here she's gammer!

We were dating, I raved at times about mefi; she joined (wihtout telling me!) We stayed at the fine Jessymyn Inn last summer, caught up to Josh in Philly - and yes, there's more (which we will fill in later…)

But there's a helicopter to catch and a special woman to be wed. Allons-y and Geronimo.

Woot!

I hope eloping doesn't mean that you've got shotgun wielding family members coming after you :)

I don't know if this is appropriate or if it's bad manners for me to use this phrase, but... pics, or it didn't happen!

Congratulations! May your marriage be filled with love and laughter.

Helicopter is fine, but if you really wanted to MeFi it up, you'd find a way to get a tux under a wetsuit.

Don't do it!

Just kidding, DO IT

Hooray! Best wishes for a wonderful life together. May your days be full of schmoopy and empty of snark.

Good work! All the best to you both.
posted by Wolof at 5:54 AM on December 30, 2010

P.S. Unless you want snark, in which case snark too. Some deliriously happy marriages are built on snark so maybe I shouldn't have excluded it.

I love you, sweetheart.

YAY! Everyone needs a hug, and you two came in and gave us one! Best wishes to you both, and here's to a very happy 2011!
