Post Wedding Kansas City, Kansas BBQ Bash

When people ask how we met, the short answer is "online." The next question is what dating service we used and the next answer is Elder Scrolls Online. If you've not heard of it, that's because it's a video game and not a dating service, although more than a few couples have met on its servers. It's a social swords and sorcery type game that promotes friendly interaction between players. We met shortly before I joined the in game "guild" of Grilled Cheese and had been talking about all matters game related with a mutual friend. (Thanks, Darryl.) After joining the guild, of which Adam is the guild master (which sounds a lot fancier than it is), we talked almost every day. Romance was not on either of our radars, especially since we lived half a continent apart. However, it soon became apparent that we "clicked." Adam later confirmed the same, but I found myself hoping he'd be online every time I got on the game, sometimes getting on simply because I saw that he was as well. By Christmas we both realized that there was more there than just a simple friendship. (Thanks, Darryl.) By March I was flying out to meet Adam and his family. By May we were officially engaged, though we had basically planned on it since my first visit.  As for the romantic engagement story, Adam one day says, "let's get married", and I said "okay." And then one day he gets home early from work and said, "let's go ring shopping," and I said "okay." And now we're getting married!

Courtyard Marriott Basking Ridge

With a beautiful, new renovation, this hotel is 
ideally located between the wedding and reception sites, but alas, does 
not have an indoor pool.

There is not a reserved room block, but if not turning left really bothers you, this hotel is a fine choice.

Delta Hotels by Marriott Basking Ridge

This historic venue was almost the site of the reception. It is situated north of Basking Ridge and is conveniently located off of 287 for those who wish to be closer to the Morristown area. Alas, also no pool.
