Welcome

Congratulations. You've somehow managed to stumble upon a website that will hopefully tell you everything you need to know about a certain couple who have decided to throw caution to the wind and get married after four years of courtship dating for not that long, really, in the grand scheme of things. The couple's names are Joshua Snyder and Elizabeth Miller, and they're getting married on Saturday December 11th, 2010.

InterestingTell me more.

Their wedding will take place at the Greystone Inn, in Durham, North Carolina, and start at approximately 11 am. The ceremony will probably last between ten and twenty minutes, depending on how adept the couple is at repeating phrases. Following the ceremony will be a delicious lunch, catered by somebody--not sure who yet. A good time will most likely be had by all.

Joshua and Liz sound really cool.

They are.

Can I come watch them get married?

Well, that depends. Did you receive an invitation in the regular, post-office-type mail that includes all of the above information about the wedding?

I did!

Fantastic. Simply fill out the RSVP card they provided, slip it into the self-addressed, stamped envelope that's undoubtedly included, and put it back in the mailbox you originally got the invitation out of (you'll have to lift that little red flag on the side of the mailbox so the guy who comes and gets the mail knows to take it--it's complicated, I know, but there's not yet an app for that). If you're still stumped, you can email your response to snyderfits@yahoo.com.

Let's say I didn't receive an invitation. Does that mean I'm not invited?

Not necessarily. Josh and Liz are the type of couple that like to take their sweet time with things get things done as they're able, and as of this posting, they were able to make a website before they had everything lined up to send out physical invitations.

So if I haven't received an invitation, but I'm reading the website, how do I know I'm invited?

Well, are you related to either Josh or Liz?

Yes.

Then what probably happened is that one of them told you the website address so you could see all the wedding details for yourself, with the implication being that you are, in fact, invited to their wedding ceremony, which, for various and sundry reasons, is going to be a small, family-only affair.

I'm not related to either one of them that I know of. What about me?

This is a question that should probably be best addressed to either Josh or Liz directly.

How do I contact them?

Well, if you know them well enough to want to come to their wedding, then surely you must have their phone numbers or email addresses.

I don't.

Then how, may I ask, did you find this website?

Like you said, I just stumbled upon it.

Then the internet is lamer than any of us ever imagined.
