Just the ceremony, as the reception has far too much work to go still.<br/>Anyway, it works, up to a point. It even has chapters, though they're the bits that don't work too good. The chapters are: <ol> <li>Introduction</li> <li>Michael Arrives</li> <li>Here Comes Melissa</li> <li>Greetings</li> <li>Readings</li> <li>Homily</li> <li>Marriage Vows</li> <li>Musical Interlude</li> <li>Prayer</li> <li>Rock Out</li> </ol> If people want copies, just hassle me. I currently have no idea if they'll work in a DVD player that isn't Gordon, but they should. I might put some bits online (after the 8th, once my Internet resets), but I'm lazy, and liable to forget.<br /> Oh, if you want a case or something, you'll need to supply one. I just have a big pile of blank DVD+Rs.

This time from our Wedding song, which is called, "The Wedding Song". Mumsdollar are good...<br/><pre>Since I met you I've known there's no-one else who could ever come close and the day that you said that you would be mine meant now I'd be happy till the end of time I love you more than words could say And I pray to God everyday I thank Him for showing me the way to find you now there is nothing but blue sky. When I'm with you time means nothing it just seems to stand still or maybe it just leaves us alone and passes by I'll stand by you now forever we will be together cause the day that you said that you would be mine meant now I'd be happy till the end of time I love you more than words could say I pray to God everyday, I thank him for showing me the way to find you</pre> Music 2008-05-12T19:21:55Z yomcat http://yomcat.geek.nz/lifetype/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=1124&blogId=1 This is mainly for Fi. But anyone can watch it.<br/>It's the reading of Fi's apology from the reception. No editing (so the audio is odd and stuff). <p><a href="http://yomcat.geek.nz/movies/fi.m4v">Here it is.

Now for the reception. And then the photos...<br/>Orders please. I guess.

I suppose most of you want <a href="http://wedding.yomcat.geek.nz/photo_1">the link</a>. I've also started to chase people up. Been studying the video and watching for cameras. So it's going to be hard to hide the fact that you had a camera.<br/>Never forget chics with guns:<br /> <img src="http://yomcat.geek.nz/wedding/photo_1/Images/416.jpg"><img src="http://yomcat.geek.nz/wedding/photo_1/Images/358.jpg"><br /><br /><br /> And, yes, the guys had flowers as well:<br /> <img src="http://yomcat.geek.nz/wedding/photo_1/Images/362.jpg"><img src="http://yomcat.geek.nz/wedding/photo_1/Images/424.jpg"><br /><br /><br /> If you want to see the rest of the photos, and/or the video, you'll need to make a dinner date with us...

They're currently sitting on the book on the couch, and some fell off and landed on the floor. I'm sure there's some hideous ones in there (we did have to take photos of Ivan), but there will be "radiant" ones as well. Hopefully, chics with guns...<br/>Also, we have Ivan and Natalie dancing on video. hehehehe. The Wedding... 2008-04-05T17:03:09Z yomcat http://yomcat.geek.nz/lifetype/index.php?op=ViewArticle&articleId=1107&blogId=1 I've uploaded (next time I'm compressing it and using the shell to uncompress) the first bunch of photos. These are the ones taken by Andrew (qwandor) and Jonathan (Nathan's daddy). I'm waiting for more (I'll be chasing people up sometime soon).<br/>Well, <a href="http://wedding.yomcat.geek.nz/photo_1/">go look at them</a>.<br /> <br /> If you want a larger version of any of them, just ask. If you want a larger version of all of them, wait. I'm likely to put out a DVD series (one with photos, one with video). The Wedding... 2008-03-14T12:00:01Z yomcat
