Wedding updates

May 25, 2005

Could time fly any faster?

Some people have wondered about how they should dress for the weekend. We hope that everyone plans on comfort and function, as the ceremony, though under a pavilion, may still be affected by weather conditions. Nice but comfortable is what we would recommend. (And bring a rain jacket or umbrella, just in case...)

We have received all of our RSVP's and are looking at celebrating with quite a goodly number of family members and well-wishers. We are excited about having an open ceremony and fellowship time followed by a reception for our invited guests--we can't wait to see everyone!

The responses have been coming in at a steady rate. Thanks to those who have already responded... for the rest, we look forward to hearing from you!

One month... we are sooooooo pumped...

Wow, time flies, no?

Okay, we're about a week away from our RSVP deadline, so we're excited about getting those replies.

Also, we're having regular conversations with The Man Upstairs about the weather for our wedding weekend. While our nuptials will be happening rain or shine--we're under a pavilion and should be able to avoid the most of a storm--we're certainly hoping for sunny weather so our kids' program and afternoon outdoor games can happen.

So, a reminder: bring your bocce sets, your tennis racquets, soccerballs, ball gloves, playing cards, and so on, because there is heaps--and we mean HEAPS--of room in Queen's Park.

The Left and The Right would like to thank all those amazing people who have thrown showers and other such events in our honour--truly we're blessed a thousand times over to have folks around who care so much.

Love y'all, and see you soon!

Happy Easter, Everyone!

What a great weekend--the weather in Hamilton has been fabulous, and it looks like we might see Spring sometime soon.

Yesterday, the Roth and van Staalduinen clans gathered at Rosalee's house for a pre-wedding get-together--what a blessing it is to have family that can fellowship together in such an open, enjoyable fashion! Much food was consumed and much laughter was shared: thanks Cher and Dennis for setting it up; thanks everyone, for making it such a good day.

The countdown continues...

Completely off topic: In Hamilton yesterday Brent ran his 2nd "Around the Bay 30K Road Race" in a very satisfying 2hours, 25minutes, and 9 seconds. He's very stiff today. Very stiff. Wow.

Saw the counter go up a couple of notches, and realized that folks'll be visiting really soon.

Some confusion has been raised about whether this site is an "online invitation"; no, it isn't, but rather an overall information site for everyone who wishes to celebrate with us.

The Left and The Right are excited about sharing our special day with friends and family. The ceremony in Tavistock is open to whomever would like to attend, and refreshments will be served immediately following the ceremony. Invitations have been sent out for the reception-luncheon afterwards.

Stopped by the post office today and mailed out the invitations... an amazing feeling, that!

Also added a counter and guestbook to the web-page so that we can see how busy the traffic is to our site and so people can let us know they stopped by.


March 18, 2005


Wow, not so difficult after all... our web-page is up and running.

Brent, Rosalee, Sharon, Wayne, Bill, and Grace all helped out this evening to fold and stuff our invitations.
