Well, I am a bit of a type A personality. A lot of the documents I had started gathering for the K1 route. So when we decided to marry and file AOS it was just a matter of the three forms, copies and put it together. Our wedding was just us and we finished off the packet and mailed it together. My hubby loves that I am the organized one.. Haha
