WARNING: If watching cheesy couples makes you as sick as it does me, do not click on the link below. Mr. Weenie and I celebrate our 13th anniversary on Monday, so I thought I’d break out the ol’ video.
After a very romantic engagement in New York’s Central Park, we decided to elope to Greece. Now before you gag, just keep in mind that 1998-1999 are still the most romantic years we’ve had as a couple. These days romance is when one of us gets up early to take the dogs out for their morning dump and lets the other sleep in.
We definitely faced a few challenges on the way to our nuptials—not the least of which was our luggage not being on the same flight as we were. Five minutes before the ceremony, a young man ran into the courtyard with our suitcases on his head, shouting in deeply accented English, “The luggage! It ees here!!”
This video was originally created during the last millennium, so it’s a bit dated. (Note the dual Walkman headphones.) Also, I think I may have married a Pilgrim.

Thanks, Elmer!
I was so not expecting *John Fucking Denver*!
This is totally awesome. Makes me want to browse my Greece pictures. Scratch that. Makes me want to visit Greece again :)

LOL – Right?? I actually do like John Denver. :) Watching our honeymoon video made me want to go back to Greece BIG TIME. Sigh…
I happen to LOVE John Denver (I know add some geek to the cheese) and I LOVE cheese. This was so lovely to watch. Congratulations you two!

Hooray for cheese! If it’s good enough for nachos, it’s good enough for the interwebs.
Just cried at my desk – thanks a lot! Seriously, this is the sweetest thing ever. Y’all are such a great couple. I’m so happy for you and your anniversary – love you lots!!

Awww… I think it made most people want to barf. Glad you enjoyed it, even though it made you cry. :)
Very nice! Congratulations!
Also, the music from your video just caused me to have this conversation with my husband:
Him: “What are you watching?”
Me: “Um . . . the wedding video of somebody I know . . . from Twitter.”
ROFL!! That conversation has happened at my house more than once. :)
I remember watching it 13 years ago, before I met either of you, and the only thing I could think was, “I don’t trust this guy.”
Just joking! I thought, “13 years from now, this video will ruin the Greek economy.”
Happy Anniversary!

You were right on the last part, but it turns out the one you can’t trust is me, not him. So watch your back. See you soon!
Awww! I finally am catching up on my reading and watched your wedding vid. So flippin’ romantic! And so much drinking went on! And you showed major leg in a few of those pics! Love it all.
Ah yes, that was back when I took up less space. You should’ve seen me on the clothing optional beach! :P
