Congratulations!
Is it going to be a big wedding, or just one with an Elvis impersonator?

Congratulations! Now comes the fun part... A week before the wedding you'll wonder from what evil dimension came the demented spirits infesting your bride and mother-in-law to be. ;-)
And plan on kids. If you plan on sex anyway. Nature has a convoluted sense of humor sometimes. :mrgreen:

I didn't plan on kids and I didn't have any. And you lot should stop trying to scare him. Wives are a wonderful thing. If you don't believe it, just ask me... I am one.
ToMr. Hat: Best wishes to you and Mrs. Hat. Wear a pirate outfit for the wedding. Since this is your moment of glory, I won't correct your spelling. Gratz!

Are we all invited to the wedding, or do we need to show up as a drunken mob?

You know, kids can be used to grind for you. Heck, you could start your own company selling in-game gold using those little hooligans. Mr.Hat: DING GRATS! |

I would be willing to adopt a full grown adult with a proper job and benefits. That's as far as I'll go. I don't like children much. They are much too little and mostly sticky.

I am looking for some arrangement like this as long as good cooking is involved and a nice house. |

Gratty-poo! If you do have kids, consider breeding one and adopting if you need more. Paelos is right: we need to put a stop to reverse-Darwinism, but overpopulation is the world's biggest environmental problem.
Also, to make this go as smoothly as possible for you, just remember: say yes to everything.

Actually, just don't speak at all. The groom is really a placeholder for the bride's dream. Acknowledge your role as a posable action figure and just do whatever you're told. Being married is much better than the wedding :) |

And here I thought the reason wives outlived their husbands was because women didn't have wives :) As far as the wedding goes, tip #1: let her have whatever she wants Tip #2: When she asks you what *you* want/like, see Tip #1. However, do NOT just say "whatever makes you happy." Make sure you pay enough attention so that when you're asked these inevitable questions, it sounds like you actually desire the same things she does, and that it's your own idea. |

Be sure to watch Bill Cosby: Himself. I just re-watched it the other day and I think it is about the best primer on how to be just dumb enough not to have to do things that exists.

Pfffft. Asking.  I like how mine went; wife: "Hey hon, I see this ring that would be perfect for an engagement ring. It's not too expensive." me: "Sure, buy it. I'll pay you back." (to my roommate) "Hey, I think I just got engaged." Anyhow, grats. Weddings are a giant pain in the ass. You'll feel so much better when it's all over. Some advice: simpler is better, the reception is not just for you (IE dry weddings make baby jesus sad), and agree to anything she asks and be helpful in areas that are garunteed not to piss her off. And whatever you do, stay away from writing you own vows; you'll never be able to say anything that compares to what they can come up with. Have fun and good luck in your future together. |

Thanks for all the positive words.
I feel like I have to mention that we have already been living together for 3 years.
As for the wedding, Holy-Fuck-Me-Christ it's going to be a nightmare.
My family lives in Lebanon, and her's live in Colorado.
Smells like Vegas if you ask me.

Congratulations! Getting married was one of the best things that ever happened to me, right along with meeting the PopTart who turned into my wife.
Double congrats if she is a gamer.
Quick weddings are best. They are cheaper and much less kvetching all around.
