Wedding Day 26 May 2012

Things The Balvenie

I went to a delightful little tasting last night with three comrades, Phil, Michael, and Brent. We tasted Balvenie 12 year, Balvenie 15 year single barrel, Balvenie Doublewood 12 year, and the Balvenie Portwood 21 year. Lovely drams and some pretty tasty hors d'ouvres. I can safely say, a good time was had by all.

Things Pre-Wedding

Pre-wedding things to do and there is a big list but between the two of us we are chipping away at it. Most important thing to do is to get the marriage license and in Ramsey County, unlike Hennepin you have only one place. The Department of Health building on 555 Cedar Street. After you apply, you wait five days before the actual license arrives. We are cutting it a bit close. We have dining ware, beer, pop, flowers, some food, and a plan for the other food. We are praying for good weather and good humours. We want no crabbiness or bummers. Our pre-marital counseling is finished and it was really good having it with Rev. Joanie.
