[MOB Karen]

We're very friendly here, and happy to help however we can!! We're happy you found us too!!

[MsJessica07]

Hi Heather :) Glad you found this after UW. I'm a UW refugee as well, but I don't think we talked there (or was your name different and I just don't recognize you? :))

Looking forward to hearing about your plans!

[PurpleFlower]

During our sophmore year in high school our friends steph and jessie took us along on a church retreat. We both went to different schools and had never met. I remember before the to guys got there steph was telling me about Ken and said " now stay away from him, he is mine". Well I tried but Ken and I became very close and on Dec. 22, 2000 he asked me to be his girlfriend I of course said yes!!

[PurpleFlower]

December 20, 2004
I went over to Ken's house to wake him up so we could do some last min. christmas shopping. I have always woke him up the same way ever since we had became a couple ( he is very touchy and can become cranky if it isn't done right) So I always crawl into bed with him and light wake him up. I had finally got him up and he said he would be right back and headed up stairs to get ready to go. when he got back he walked over and grabed my hand and then sat on the floor. I just gave him this look like what the heck are you doing on the floor. I said "why are you on the floor" and he replied "I just feel like it". I told him to stop being weird and get off the floor and sit on the bed with me. He did and then looked at me and said "Heather you know I love and that I want to spend the rest of my life with you?" I shook my head yes and then he said "Heather" kissed me "heather" kissed me then looked at me right in the eyes and said "Heather .... will you marry me?" As he said this he pulled the ring out of his pants pocket. All I could do was cry and stammer out yes, yes!!

[PurpleFlower]

Hi Heather :) Glad you found this after UW. I'm a UW refugee as well, but I don't think we talked there (or was your name different and I just don't recognize you? :))

Looking forward to hearing about your plans!

Glad to know I am not alone!! I was pretty active there and my name was the same but I really only hung around in certain spots!!

[MsJessica07]

In the General Chat area, there's a thread of all the old UW girls to connect...check it out to see if you recognize anyone there :)

[HalloweenBride]

Can't wait to hear about all of your planning!

So here is the information to get a SD marriage license:

~Get a license from a Register of Deeds Office in a South Dakota county.
~A South Dakota marriage license costs $40. Some offices accept only cash and travelers checks.
~For those getting married during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, area Register of Deeds offices include:
Sturgis - 1425 Sherman St (605) 347-2356
*http://www.state.sd.us/doh/_themes/doh-standard-2/aeclbul2.gifRapid City - 315 St. Joseph St (605) 394-2177
Deadwood - 78 Sherman St (605) 578-3930
Custer - 420 Mount Rushmore Rd (605) 673-2784
Hot Springs - 906 N. River (605) 745-5139
~Identification is required -- either a driver's license or a certified copy of a birth certificate.
~No blood test or waiting period is required.
~Those 16 and 17 must have parental consent. South Dakota law does not permit marriage of those under 16.
~The marriage must be solemnized within 20 days from the purchase of your license or the license becomes void. Call the City of Sturgis Rally Department at (605) 720-0800 for a listing of individuals who can solemnize marriages at the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally
.~Once you are married, the individual who solemnizes the marriage must return the license to the Register of Deeds within 10 days. If not, there will be no record of your marriage. Marriage may be solemnized by a justice of
the supreme court, a judge of the circuit court, a magistrate, or any person authorized by a church to solemnize marriages. See SDCL 25-1 (http://legis.state.sd.us/statutes/Index.cfm?FuseAction=DisplayStatute&FindType=Statute&txtStatute=25-1) for specific statutes

http://www.mustloveweddings.com/forums/images/smilies/reupload/grindance.gif The church called me back!! WE GOT IT!!!!http://www.mustloveweddings.com/forums/images/smilies/Celebration/disco.gif
Look at this guy isn't he cute! well anyway they are sending the information tomorrow! I can't wait.... and we can choose who we want to be our person to preform the cermony!

Oh and Ken called me today (he had court today so we talked for while). He said that one of our old youth pastors called him to see how he was doing. He asked about ken being a police officer and about when we were getting married. Ken told him and he offered to do the ceremony for us. It is a thought but I not to sure. He is very forgetful and you really never know what he is going to do or how he will act. But it is a thought!

So we have ran into some money problems and have decided to change the date again, along with the locations of both the cermony and the reception! I think we are going to just have a small wedding with a little meet and eat cake thing after. We have not decided on a new date yet but we will see!
