... that I suggested to [livejournal.com profile] caseopaya that we get a civil union in accordance with Victorian law.

She said yes.

(I "blame", in part, [livejournal.com profile] airiefairie's excellent proposal for ending state-sanctioned marriage in favour of civil unions for all, and [livejournal.com profile] beagl and [livejournal.com profile] kimeros for cutting a similar path. Thanks for the inspiration.)

Fixed markup error and the answer is "yes, sort of". A very "modern marriage" if you like. :)

Wahey! great news!

(y'know, Cal and I have struggled to find a good way to refer to each other; Civil Union Partner is terrible! We've defaulted to "husband" and "wife" (usually delivered in semi-ironic tone) even though we are expressly forbidden from using those terms in any formal sense. Be interested to see what you come up with!)

"Marriage is currently in two part. There is the legal part of it, then there is the ceremonial part." = sounds like what D & I did. ;D

Congratulations to you both, m'dears. May your union always be on your own terms, and no one else's. :) *hugs*

The Union makes us strong :)

Heheh... It does sound a little like what you and D did. But I don't think we could quite match how you managed to effectively elope and have a public ceremony :)
