my last blog post as a bachelor

May 4th, 2007 Stephen Lau

… after a week filled with “last ____ as a single man”, it’s time to add “last blog past as a single man” to the list. i don’t anticipate blogging anything in between now (wedding rehearsal) and tomorrow (wedding day!), so here it is.

deep and provocative, i know.

i’m pretty exhausted; we’d had a busy week of packing up the kitchen and living room in preparation for our kitchen remodel and (minor) living room remodel (we’re adding recessed lights to the living room and doing some drywall repair on one wall). we got our marriage license yesterday (the county of Alameda apparently sees no reason why Wendy and I should not be wed - though they did for some reason insist on putting “England” as my place of birth instead of “United Kingdom” because (and I quote literally): “people might abbreviate United Kingdom as UK, and UK is not a state in the US.”)

we’ve packed up our bags (mostly) for our honeymoon, practiced our first dance enough times that we’re now sick of it, and i’ve been working on my vows, while checking the weather report for Saturday about every hour or so.

okay, i’m heading out. it’s off to my rehearsal. this will be the last time i leave my house as a bachelor. the next time i come back, i’ll be married. weird.

    Looks like being a married man isn’t so bad after all. It looks like the perfect day! Your bride was stunning!

    As a wedding professional I must say she has a great eye for detail because your event was so pretty, the colours were incredible.

    Everything from the bridesmaid dresses to the bouquets, from the place cards to the centrepieces… perfect!
