We’ve decided on April because having it in August will cost an extra 6 thousand dollars. We found the perfect place, too. The problem is that it’s only available on the 20th.

| Me: |
So.
|
| Jazz: |
Well, do you think it’ll look tacky having our wedding on 4/20?
|
| Me: |
No, not at all. Firstly, it’s the only date available so you have to take it. Secondly, it sounds completely different when you say April 20th. Thirdly, I don’t think anyone will even know what 4/20 means.
|
| Jazz: |
Um, do you know who I’m inviting? I’m sure the only person who won’t know is my Grandmother.
|
| Me: |
Well, at least every year when people are blazing up they’ll think of your wedding and how magical it was. Also, you’ll never forget your anniversary, unless of course you wake and bake.

| NOTE: |
I don’t see any problem with having a wedding on April 20th. There are loads of other holidays that could be worse, like Christmas or Memorial Day. It made me think about what time of the year I’d like to get married. I think I’d like an August wedding in my hometown of Coupeville, WA. I’d have it at Sunnyside Cemetery which overlooks the prairie and Ebey's Landing. There’s a perfect little pull-out where I used to park my truck at night after work and secretly smoke cigarettes while dreaming of the day I’d get to escape. It’s funny how after all these years and adventures I’d like to end up back there to tie the knot. It's just so beautiful and historic, which oozes romance. |
