I just sent 121 email messages with the zoom link to the 121 BJ peeps who RSVP’d by email.
Thanks for all the nice notes, for all the fun or clever subject lines, and for most everyone following the rules and letting me know your nyms. Gotta keep out the riff raff, you know!
Anyway, give it a few minutes, and if you haven’t received your zoom link from me, send me an email message – and indicate in the title that that you didn’t get the link.
That will differentiate the “no link” messages from the people who I know are going to send their RSVPs after seeing this message. :-)
Just one more day!
Confirmation: 5pm Eastern time

Congratulations, Cole :)

If you are really polite and are tempted to reply with a “thank you” email message, maybe skip that this one time?
I’ll know you are all appreciating the links without sending me email. :-)
That took 847 clicks, and my fingers are tired!

@WaterGirl:
Don’t forget to add one for pressing send!

HI – thanks and just wanted to verify the time – 5:00 eastern daylight time, right?
Joy in FL
@munira: right. 5 pm eastern time.
NutmegAgain
Can’t attend virtually, but sending very best wishes to both of you for tomorrow, and into the future.
Joy in FL
@WaterGirl: I’ll just thank you and your tired fingers right here on the blog.
T H A N K Y O U !!!
WaterGirl
@Old School: That was 7 clicks for each message. The 7 includes SEND.

I am assuming Eastern time, but I just texted the bride to confirm. I’ll let you all know when I hear back.

Got mine! 🙏🏾

I am thankfully done with Jury Duty so I will be able to use the zoom link.
Only 121, y’all are slackers. I was hoping we’d break the internet with these nuptials. But I suppose keeping Watergirl functional and not having to spring for a finger brace for her is important, too.
mandarama
I can’t attend, but I’m wishing John and Joelle a wonderful day full of laughter, and many years of enjoying the memories from it! Can’t wait to see the photos. (Now that we have been told there will be photos!)

John Cole getting married…who woulda thunk it. Congrats to our blogmaster overlord.
MazeDancer
Assuming that all the online attendees will not be visible. To Bride and Groom or each other.
Otherwise, gotta work on my fascinator.
WaterGirl
@MazeDancer: Yep, we will be muted and not on screen at all.
eclare
@MazeDancer:
Fancy! No one does fascinators like the Brits, though.

May the day be full of joy and laughter and the marriage a blessing to all.
MazeDancer
@WaterGirl: Excellent choice. Thanks!

Looking forward to the wedding day post tomorrow. Since the bossman will be busy, we can post emojis with abandon.
Sandia Blanca
@WaterGirl: Sorry, WG, my politeness reflexes are faster than my awareness of this plea!
WaterGirl
@Sandia Blanca: not a problem!

I will not be able to attend the zoom, but I am sending a hearty congratulations and my absolute best wishes to our blogmaster and his bride. May you enjoy a long and fulfilling life together!

Arrh damnit, forgot to send you a request Watergirl. But that is some good work you’ve done for Cole. And given how crazy my work situation has been lately (blargh), something would probably have come up to prevent making good use of it. But still, big congratulations to Cole and Joelle from a 20-year mostly-lurker and good luck.
Cheryl from Maryland
My own wedding was stressful enough (my mother wanted MANY, MANY THINGS, but did not want to pay for them. I had to say no quite often), so I’m not watching another. But best wishes to the groom and bride. Best wishes to all the pets. I hope all attending have fun, all watching have fun, and sympathies to Water Girl’s fingers. P.S. — After a decade or so, my mother said to me, ‘Yours was the best wedding I ever attended.’ Gee, thanks, Mom.
WaterGirl
@NetheadJay: It’s not too late!
RSVPs are still arriving in my email.
BeautifulPlumage
Best wishes for the EVENT OF THE SEASON tomorrow! No zoom for me, I’ll be at work so will enjoy the pics and post.
Sister Golden Bear
I’m up in Sequoia/Kings Canyon this week and reception is iffy, so I won’t be able to join the Zoom and see Cole in his formal overalls. Though I might be able to drop in the wedding thread.
But in case that doesn’t work out either, let me offer Cole and Joelle my congratulations in advance. 💒💍🎉🥂🫶
Jackie
@WaterGirl: Will there be a video posted later for those who WANT to attend, but due to conflicting schedules – can’t? I sooo want to see the actual exchanging of vows!
Central Planning
I might not be able to make it. I’ll be on a plane :(
Anonymous At Work
Congratulations to the half-happy, half-cranky couple (you know which half is which). My job is 75% Zoom and 25% Teams, so I won’t ever use either in my spare time. Enjoy.
NetheadJay
@WaterGirl: Oh nice. Off to mail.
Timill
@Anonymous At Work: Hmm – I don’t think you should let principles stand in the way of having fun. ETA: Or maybe they’re prejudices?
Chigail
@WaterGirl: well I plan to dress appropriately even if I can’t be seen.
Ida Slapter
Here is the favour of my reply: Wheeeeee!
Thank you so much again, WaterGirl!
Off to get my hair and nails done – see you all there!
