We have a date for the wedding now - 10th of October 2010 (if you hadn't guessed). We have a venue - the tasty Atrium restaurant in Edinburgh, with the ceremony in their eponymous atrium. We also have an officiant ready - Marilyn Jackson, of the Humanist Society of Scotland. We almost have a band, and we're thinking about cake, too. We will also soon have the ability for Em to actually marry in Scotland - after we get her visa back from the Borders Agency. It's going to be great!</p>Cards!Em & Jamiehttp://wedding.montgomerie.nettag:wedding.montgomerie.net,2010:cards/12643502532010-01-24T20:15:51+00:002010-01-24T20:15:51+00:00<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/picturesofclouds/4300809309/" title="Engagement cards by Pictures of Clouds, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/4300809309_2ea8fb5c3c.jpg" width="500" height="245" alt="Engagement cards" /></a></p><p>Thank you, everyone, for all the engagement cards. We were touched by the outpouring of congratulations, and a little confused at the preponderance of teddy bears. This picture was taken before they'd all arrived, so if yours is missing, don't worry- we got it and it was also displayed on our mantelpiece for months. Thanks!</p>Ring!Em & Jamiehttp://wedding.montgomerie.nettag:wedding.montgomerie.net,2009:ring/12534805162009-09-20T21:04:54+00:002009-09-20T21:04:54+00:00<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/picturesofclouds/3938747016/" title="Engagement Ring by Pictures of Clouds, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2488/3938747016_2c34e5da22.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="Engagement Ring" /></a></p><p>We went to a little antiques fair on Hanover Street today, and came across the perfect engagement ring. It's small and blue, and it fit perfectly without any adjustment. Em wore it out of the fair.</p><p>About the ring: It's an Edwardian (circa 1910) sapphire and diamond three-stone ring, set in platinum (around the stones) and yellow gold (the band). We're told that was common for the period - they had moved from the all-gold rings of the Victorian era, but still could not work platinum well enough to make the entire ring from it.</p>Engaged!Em & Jamiehttp://wedding.montgomerie.nettag:wedding.montgomerie.net,2009:engaged-1/12523544072009-09-07T20:30:03+00:002009-09-07T20:30:03+00:00<p>Five years and three apartments after we first met, we've decided to get married!</p><p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/picturesofclouds/231874696/" title="The two of us by Pictures of Clouds, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/81/231874696_06dcf87caa_m.jpg" width="215" alt="The two of us" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/picturesofclouds/208472391/" title="Jamie is unaffected by the wind by Pictures of Clouds, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/72/208472391_eb65dd82ec_m.jpg" width="215" alt="Jamie is unaffected by the wind" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/picturesofclouds/93448307/" title="In the airport by Pictures of Clouds, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm1.static.flickr.com/34/93448307_c3d4e46d3b_m.jpg" width="215" alt="In the airport" /></a></p><p>We haven't decided on a date or location yet, but when we do, we'll post it here.
