I agree with HD and Fred, we want a very personal affair with just immediate family right after the courthouse, maybe a little celebration dinner, that's all...

Reason: All that $$$ could be put to something that we really need and can't do without...living accommodations, (not to mention AOS is $1010) and all the rest...

We already celebrated our engagement with a huge party earlier last year, so we got our fill of grandeur :yes:

Visa Journey completed, but we are still here to provide support! :)

Oh dear God! I didn't even consider that it would be for each person...so for those of you that have to do it for kids as well...best save that $$$ (unless of course you have tons of $$$ to begin with!)

It may be a few dollars chaper since they are under 14. But it is still $930 each. But I'm not complaining, it's a one time expense, I LOVE MY KIDDOS. :)

Congratulations Fred!

And Congrats to Maliciant as well! (it took me a while to realize I missed some posts, especially sine maliciant is so suave with the way he just "slipped" in that his fiance is here in the USA with him and all...totally understating the happiness both feel to be with each other at last, I am sure!)
