Wedding Photos

Hi all.  Thank you everyone – you helped make the day very special for us both.

Just a quick reminder: Any full size photos of the day you may have, if you can’t get them to me by means of USB stick or the like, you can upload the photos here ( http://www.dropitto.me/ryanrees – password ‘wedding’ ) and I will be making albums online for you all to look at.  I still need to get the site working yet, but I should have the link up soon.

My last post as an unmarried man

1 day to go.  No jitters just yet.  Can’t wait for it all to be over, but will try and enjoy the day tomorrow.  Almost all preparations done.  Will be heading to the reception venue in a little while to help out with the decorating.  A quick drink tonight with mates, in The Workhouse, for old times sake.

24 hours and 31 minutes until the ceremony starts.  Tick tock!

Send me your photos

Hi peeps,

After the wedding, can you please send me your photos (original, straight from the camera please) for the wedding website I will be setting up.

You can send me them here: http://www.dropitto.me/ryanrees
The password is ‘wedding’

Unfortunately, they will need to be done one at a time – I haven’t found a solution yet that will allow multiple files at one go.

The files will be sent to my dropbox account and I will transfer them to my website (link still to come).  The website looks amazing, and works kinda like a slideshow.  The site isn’t back online yet.  Also, there’s a lot of background work that needs doing for me to get all the photos up so pls be patient.  It may have to be done after the honeymoon.  It may be some time before we get the ‘official’ ones.  They will be available also, copyright free, so you may download and have them printed off for your own keepsakes should you wish.

I’d never heard of this chap. I’m kinda ashamed.

Sir Nicholas Winton.

An 80 year old British man secretly saved 669 children during WW2, never telling anyone.  When his wife found the documents years later in his attic, she submitted them to the BBC.  The BBC then organised this in 1988…

A true legend.

He is still alive, at aged 103.

Coldplay are fantastic…

… and damn, this makes me want to go to Glastonbury.  That many people scares the hell out of me, but the atmosphere is unrivaled.  Incredible.

Here we go again…

… a new theme, one that looks amazing, and hopefully one that won’t break after a day (my last one stopped letting me into the site’s admin area citing numorous php errors).  Sigh.

SO… 3 days until THE wedding.  I can’t sleep, but I’ve just had a back and neck/shoulders massage and feeling a little weird having never had one before.  I’m supposed to not drink tonight.  Yeah, right, try and stop me!

Coming back soon will be the site I’m preparing for the wedding photos.  I’m going to set up something where people can drop all the high-res images to me (I have a dropbox account but I have no idea if this will allow what I’m planning yet – I need to look this up).  I won’t be taking people’s facebook pictures.  They’re small, compressed, horrible pieces of shit that I won’t allow on my sites.  :-)

Much to be confirmed.  I’m off in a bit for a takeaway.

BTW, the rings arrived today.  Some more weight off my shoulders, but there’s still THOSE speeches and THAT dance yet.  I’m definately not the kind of person that thrives on being the center of attention.
