We didn't have 'til death, and we didn't have "obey" either.
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
A lot of weddings don't have "till death do us part" any more, as far as I know, regardless of the actual intentions of the participants.
Cool. Not that I could tell you any of the vows of any of the weddings I've attended in the past few years.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In New York State, apparently a marriage license is valid for 60 days. [link] Not sure what that says about NYS, but I'm guessing they mean 60 days in between getting the license and getting married....

Hey now:
Q. Can two first cousins marry?
A. Yes. However, New York State does not permit Marriage Licenses to be issued to an ancestor and a descendant (such as between a parent and child or grandparent and grandchild), a brother and a sister of either full or half blood, or an uncle and niece or aunt and nephew, regardless of whether or not these persons are legitimate or illegitimate offspring. >[link]I love the internet.
(The upshot is, I can't find the text of a civil marriage ceremony in NYS.)

I have finely developed senses that allow me to ignore instrument cacophony at will. Handy skill.
Especially given your profession!
I recognize, Hec, that you see it as a fuck you. But I certainly don't. I think it's a politically semi-pragmatic decision. I am not even disappointed so much as I'm eyerolly. I'm as irked by their being an invocation AT ALL as I am at whom is making it.
Also, I'm intrigued that Melissa Etheridge "has nothing but good things to say about Warren, who she described as a thoughtful man of the cloth.".

The movie I'm watching just made me buy Smooth by Santana. Why do I never learn? I only have it twice already in iTunes. At least I've rated it now. But I am out 99¢.

Is it Keeping the Faith ita? I love the "Smooth" montage in that flick.
For what it's worth, none of the weddings I have officiated have ever included either 'obey' or 'death.' Even the most traditional couples don't ask for it.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

My wedding could have included "we've replaced his wedding vows with Folger's Crystals, let's see if he notices" for all I know, it all being in Mandarin.
