Thanks for all the congratulations and well wishes. You guys sure make me feel good. I’m sure I’ll write here about wedding plans as they progress, but if you’re really interested in following along, check out the joint blog the Giraffe and I created: Shan & Mike.

We’ve talked about doing a blog together for awhile, and keeping friends and family informed of our evolving plans seemed like a good way to start. But I also hope it’s interesting to others because we are inevitably doing things a little different than I think many couples do, and we’re doing it on a pretty limited budget. So basically how to do a “nontraditional” wedding on the cheap. Or how we’re doing it at least.

We’ll probably cover other things too, couple-y and otherwise, and it will most likely evolve into something else entirely post-wedding. So if you want, head on over and check it out.
