This couple got engaged while he was running in the torch relay around the UK! How patriotic!

This is my grandmother and grandfathers wedding photo from the 1920's, I swear they didn't always look this grumpy!

Oh man, I was so scared of their grumpiness I almost didn't post this. Just kidding! They look perfectly sunny to me, but maybe that's because I come from a city where it rains 300 days a year. This is as peppy as we get around here.

Ahhh, my home city of Seattle! We have rain, Starbucks, more hipsters than Brooklyn, and yes! You can marry a building! In fact, buildings have genders!

Oh yeah, we also have desperate attention-seekers too. So...we're actually a just like everywhere else.

Take the cake, but the booze is mine!

My boyfriend planned this proposal about a month before Faire started, and actually kept the secret until it happened! He got the whole group we're in (History of Chivalry - Live Steel Fighters) to participate, too!
