Given the incredible drama surrounding my family and the fact that I have not referred to myself by my maiden name in years I don't know what to do for our wedding invitations. I want it to be formal and proper but I do not want to use my last name. I can't use his last name though because that would give the impression I was marrying a relative. I also can't use his last name and use no last name for me because that gives the same implication.
I pondered over this for a while, most of the day. Before I came up with the wording that solved everything. It was inspired by the story hubby-to-be once told me as a joke when I couldn't sleep. In the story he was climbing the tower to rescue the princess (predictably me) which I said was kind of creepy. The idea of someone climbing your house and into your window isn't necessarily romantic. The story was more detailed and completely romantic and funny.
The wording I have worked out for our wedding invitations will state that he has rescued the princess and now Bwings & Asmerus wish to invite you to their wedding. This way it is just the right amount of formal while casual enough that it needn't include our last names. I'll work out the specifics later.
For now, sleep <3 your hippie bride
