It's true, after 12 years we have decided to finally tie the knot! On Sunday, November 11, 2001 we will be celebrating our 12 year anniversary and now it will also become our official wedding anniversary as well. We have decided to fly back to Nevada (where we met) and have a small private ceremony. It didn't seem appropriate after all these years to have anything large scale we mostly wanted to do something personal for each other to make our commitment to each other legal and forever. Our original plan was to invite only a very small group of people mainly because we didn't think this was a really big deal we were wrong! More and more family and friends are telling us that they would like to attend and celebrate with us, but Jeff and I are still very much interested in keeping this a personal and small ceremony. We are not having a full-scale wedding and it will not be traditional in any sense of the word but we are honored that so many people would like to celebrate with us! We have made us some official invitations, if you are interested in flying to Reno and celebrating with us, please contact me via email or telephone and let me know and I will be happy to send you an invitation. This needs to be done rather quickly since the date is approaching fast and we will need to have an accurate head count soon.
Here are some details in the meantime:

Lastly, we are not expecting gifts! The presence of our friends and family to celebrate with us is all we want. BUT, we have been repeatedly asked about gifts and I am being told that I should not refuse to accept a gift if someone wants to give us something (and well, I agree I LOVE PRESENTS!!!). So to make this a little simpler, we have put together a "registry page" of some fun things and a few necessary things we could use in our life. Feel free to buy from the list of use your imagination - like I said, we really are not expecting any gifts!
You can find the Gift Registry online for your convenience.
