Formendacil and Nienna Announce Their Engagement - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I totally missed this as well - am terrible about checking the 'other' forums sometimes.

This is awesome. Congratulations to the both of you. I know this is at least the second instance of folks coming together after meeting through BD!

Any chance of a bit of Tolkiendom making its way into the ceremony? I can understand where it could be considered cheesy or whimsical, especially to family/friends looking on with no connection themselves, but it could also be done tastefully and appropriately.

Many who might criticize such should consider that they may be willing to have some sappy love song off the radio to serve them similarly. Is that so different?

Legolas, you have a bit more catching up to do...which do you think is the other one and we will fill you in....I mean there are babies who are no longer really babies now.....

Even [or especially] while celebrating the nuptials of Mr. and Mrs. Niennamendacil.

MANY CONGRATULATIONS TO MY SISTERBIRD AND MY HONORARY BIG BROTHER!

Excellent!

Many congratulations to both, and my prayer for a long and happy life together.

Boromir88 · 06-27-2012, 10:24 AM

Pictures are everywhere, but I just have to put up a couple of favs...like teaching Wilwa the electric slide

It was a beautiful wedding and much love to the bride and groom.

Sincere and merry congratulations.

So did you mention the Downs/Werewolf at any point in the ceremony?
