"The" plans

I have been told a time or two in my life to "Never say never" and it is once again coming true.  I had said that I would never get married again and here I am making plans to tie the knot once again next month.  Since Ron and I have been together for 10 years [as of July 1st] we thought, what the heck, and decided to make it legal.  We're just exchanging vows, no one will be there except the two witnesses... there will be no party afterwards, just a nice meal for the four of us after the nuptials.  There will be some pictures but the whole process shouldn't take more than 10 to 15 minutes.  We are recycling rings, Ron has one from one of his two previous weddings and mine is my ex's ring that I had resized for a total of $35.00.  I'm borrowing a dress to wear and hope my Stargazer lilies are in bloom for my bouquet.  We have our license, paid for the justice of the peace and the total for everything should even out to around $500.00, less than what people would pay for the engagement ring alone [we aren't bothering with that ring, just the wedding band].  So it's a practical, level headed process.   Over the last ten years we have had all the romantic gestures our hearts could want.. and both of us don't want muss or fuss so we are left with practical, so in essence, that is the romantic part.
