Marriage

Now that the California Supreme Court has struck down the gay marriage ban, we have a lot of people asking if we're going to get married, and if so, when and are they invited? We had a big ceremony for our domestic partnership in 2001, so we don't want to blow a lot of cash during this recession on something similar.

However, we're not opposed to getting married and celebrating in a more low key way. Despite what may happen in November, if the hateful anti-gays make the state vote on overturning it or not, we'd like to keep our anniversaries consistent. So we'd prefer to get married and celebrate with our friends in October, which is the same month we met and the same month we had our ceremony 8 years later.

This October will be 15 years of togetherness, so we were planning on doing something anyway. Now we just have to decide on details.
