Started dating when we were 16, engaged at 22, married at 23, kids at 24, 25, and 26.
Just knew it was right I guess, never had to question that it was wrong.
If I could do it all over again, I would forgo the whole traditional wedding thing...get married on a Friday evening in the chapel instead of the church, much more elegant, less people, better food, instead of a DJ, hire a 3 piece string quartet, though everyone had a blast at our dance.

Friends for 5 years...engaged when we both 26....married 6 months later.
non-traditional? I'd have a clown wedding. That's right. Everyone dresses up as clowns, baby.

Dated for a year and a half. Got engaged when I was 24, she was 23. Got married 7 months later.
I guess if I could have a non-traditional wedding, I'd have it on a pier at Pine Lake. We spread my mother's ashes there and it is a very special place besides all that.

As you can see from that test, I wasn't very 'dateable' so we decided to skip that portion in the relationship

Well, I figured it would take you longer.
You are Poky, after all.

Oh, you just have to look, Coach. In fact, we're gearing up for the 2nd Annual Clown Attack here in town. December 7th. 100 rowdy people dressing up as clowns, riding around in purple busses causing mass hysteria in Oshvegas. It's quite the event!
Wisconsin Mafia? The invitation is OPEN! and yes, I'm serious.
