about our wedding, this site, and life in general. Now, we've had a minor change since
moving to the new server, and that is NO CGI ACCESS. This means no more form to

Mom & Dad Shannon: Dear Jim and Missy- Thank you for such a beautiful day. This was one
of the proudest days of our lives! May God bless and keep both of you in His care. Love,
Mom and Dad
Mom & Dad Feck: Evaluation: It
was totally cool! Great job! Comments: It's not unusual for parents to dream of the future while watching
their children grow. They wonder who their children will become and where they will go and
what they will do. They wonder if they will grow safely, they wonder if they will be
successful in the pursuit of their dreams and if they will be happy. Will they fall in
love? So many "wonders," so many "wishes," for their
children...health, happiness and love. We are so very proud of who you've become and of
how you've arrived where you are. Jim, you've filled our lives with laughter and tears and
more joy than we imagined when we began this family journey together, and we thank you. We
believe you have found your perfect soulmate in Melissa and welcome her into our hearts
with open arms. We thank you both for sharing with us a truly special wedding day. We are
so very proud of the two of you. Now begins a new set of "wishes" for the newest
branch of our families...may you always feel the depth of joy in each other and commitment
to each other that you felt on your wedding day. May you have a long and happy life
together. May you always cherish and enjoy each other. May you always be each other's best
friend. And may you be blessed with children who are as wonderful as ours! We love you.
Mom and Dad

own!! XXXX Mare

Wendy Newburn: Evaluation: It was pretty cool. Comments: What are the top three key pieces of advice you'd give to newlyweds
to be? (We're planning for May 17, 1997.) -Wendy
Authors' Response: The first thing is to put as much effort into the
little things as possible, they yield the biggest dividends. For example, we purchased a
bunch of Godiva ballotins and made arrangements with all of the hotels in which our
out-of-town guests were staying to have the chocolates left in their rooms before they
arrived. Also, consider things like the centerpieces at the tables at the reception. We
had extremely high narrow vases for the flowers. This way, while people were seated, they
could see the person across the table from them without having to look through the
equivalent of a shrub. The second piece of advice is to delegate. Delegate things to the
best man. Delegate things to the maid/matron of honor. Delegate, delegate, delegate.
Explain your wishes and then don't worry about it. For example, let the best man deal with
paying the service providers at the end of the evening. This frees you up to perform the
last (and possibly most important) piece of advice, ENJOY YOURSELF!!! It's your day. Plan
it how YOU want. Live it how YOU want. Get to the reception and enjoy it. Do some pictures
before the ceremony to allow for this. (In fact, by doing this, we even made it back for
about half of the cocktail hour!) One final "bonus" piece of
advice is to BE CREATIVE. Creativity speaks volumes to your guests and also stretches your
dollars to their fullest. For example, we produced about 120 custom wedding programs, all
individually signed (remember the little things), with very little money, a moderate
degree of creativity, and quite a bit of work. In the end, it was certainly worth it since
our guests loved them. You can see the program here. This page
takes a little while to download, but it will eventually. We got the covers from a company
family owned company called Weddingware, and the rest we did ourselves. Good Luck!
Sarah Fazziola: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Hey guys! I finally made it !!! I'm at my parents' house, marveling
at the fact that other peoples computers actually WORK when you use them (not to bust on
my father-in-law, or anything)... I'll have to drag Paul over here to sign in as
well...Talk to you two soon! --Mrs. Fazz The Second
Aunt Mary and Uncle Sam Losi: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: It was great sharing your day with you. Good luck in the future.
--Love, Aunt Mary & Uncle Sam.
Karen Repp: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Hi babies, its just me. Had fun love u love u . --love just me
Kari Nicholson: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: I found your web page through the "Way Cool Weddings"
page, and it is just that - way cool!!! I loved looking through your wedding pages. I am
getting married in Sacramento, California on October 4, 1997. Melissa's dress was
beautiful! I am still looking for the perfect dress, and have yet to find it. Melissa's
dress is exactly what I keep describing at the bridal salons, but somehow I haven't come
across anything like it. If you don't mind my asking, do you know the maker of that dress
(possibly even the style number)? I would be eternally grateful for any information you
could give me. Thank You!!! Kari :-) By the way, CONGRATULATIONS!!! You seem perfect for
each other, and good luck on a wonderful future together.
Staci Williams: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Great page. Several times it brought tears to my eyes. I love how
you refer to Melissa as 'your bride'. It was a great page! Congratulations on your
marriage and Thank You for sharing it with us all. --Staci
Patricia Giglio: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: WOW - what a wedding and what a beautiful couple. I can't remember

Comments: I love the excerpt from the
Sanskrit. I'm stealing it for my program!! :) (thank you!)
Sue Ann Brade: Dear Jim I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed visiting your
wedding page. October is such a nice time for a wedding in New York State and everything
from Melissa's dress to the flowers to the cake looked gorgeous. I also liked seeing the
pictures of your cats. I have two of my own-Dickens, a gray-striped male, and his sister,
Nellie, who is grey and white. Best wishes to you and Melissa for many happy years to
come! --Sue Ann
Deborah Desjardins: Evaluation: It was very cool. Comments: You should make it so that the continuous music is optional. Any
suggestions on a "different" yet "classy" wedding dance song? We've
been considering songs such as "Never My Love" by The Temptations, "When
You Wish Upon A Star" recorded by Stephen Bishop and a few others. Our wedding is May
3 and a friend of ours is choreographing our first dance and wants to get started on it
soon. ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you very much and
CONGRATULATIONS!!
Author's Note: Try "Lover Lay Down" from
the Dave Matthews' Band's Under the Table and Dreaming CD. It's very different, very
classy and VERY beautiful.
Stacey Sullivan: Evaluation: It was pretty cool.
Ahava Brooke: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: I loved your page. Beautiful wedding, pictures, and web design.

Valerie Fischer: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job!
Comments: very cool!!! I'm getting married
Oct. 25 this year, and really like skimming, er, I mean receiving inspiration from other
sites!! :) I wouldn't mind some help on building our own wedding page...any info you can
give me would be great!! by the way... did you ever see, or do you know where on the web a
site is for wedding planning??? I found this really cool site, where you entered the day's
date, then your wedding date, and the planner automatically set up dates when you had to
have things done by. of course, I didn't bookmark it, and then threw away my copy of the
planner...yikes!! well...any help would be appreciated!! thanks, Valerie
Authors' Response: I'm not sure which site you mean, but we'll look
for it. In the meantime, if anyone out there reading this can help Valerie, let me know. Hey, this gives me a
great idea for this site...a "Wedding Resources" area. Stay tuned...
Dave Alber: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Great site Feck! Well done! I'll be checking in regularly now to
see the news and to see how Leon is doing. Looks like it was a great wedding also. I and
the rest of the Peak Pigs wish you and your wife the best of luck.
Jodi Bluto: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job!
Kellie Whitehurst Gaines: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: I love your page! Really wonderful and much of your story sounds
like Mark & I. We also met in January (15th of '94) and were married in the fall (Dec
7, 1996). We also have a "child", Hunter, who is our 6 month old Maine Coon,
also found (we found her in Mark's apartment complex when she was just 4 weeks old!). Good
luck!
Jill Guimont: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Thank You...I loved it!!!!
Wendy: Evaluation: It was very cool. Comments: I enjoyed your site very much. I am an event planner and always
like to hear comments from brides after their big day. What would you have liked to have
seen done differently? I look forward to your updates and hearing from you personally. :)
E. Byrl Moore: Evaluation: It was very cool.
Comments: Once again, best wishes to the
happy couple! Jim, you shouldn't be so coy in regard to advertising your expertise in
helping others develop a page like yours! I especially like to hear about your
"family", as we have a kitty who hails from "Whiskers" also.
Kathy & Bill Nixon: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Jim & Melissa, my first trip into "cyberspace" was to
view your wedding pictures and entire scrapbook! While I had the greatest time at the
wedding itself (how 's your head Kenny!) I laughed and cried at the story of your life and
love. What a beautiful story, I hope to be able to access this for years to come. Leon's
story brought the tears to my eyes, you are very special people and as you could probably
guess from my "address" you'll always hold a special place in my heart. Many
years of love & happiness, kathy.
PS: LOST at wedding reception, 1 Minolta 35 mm camera, nothing
fancy, Pictures inside are of wedding and the Dannecker side of family. If found contact
me or Jim and Melissa. Thanx.
Mike and Mary Medvesky: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Just found out about your site yesterday with your thank you card.

going well. --Mike and Mary

Martha Orr: Evaluation: It was pretty cool. Comments: Hi! This was fun. I work with Sandy, and I've heard a lot about
this web site. Unfortunately, either albany.net, prodigy, or my computer is disgustingly

Carole Haigney: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: Your floral front piece on the program is lovely. I am the mother
the bride-June 28 wedding on Cape Cod with a reception in a tent in our back yard.
Yikes!!! Weather??? We are at the hectic detail stage. I am learning Microsoft Publisher
and have the program format down pat! If the weather doesn't cooperate we'll have the men
go clamming or toss a line out for a "striper" in back of the house--fishing is
good in the rain--just joking. My very best wishes to you both as you get ready to
celebrate 6 months! --Carole Haigney
Alison Cass: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: I came across your site accidentally while searching for wedding
graphics. (No, I'm not getting married - though you two may inspire - just working on a
site) Congratulations, you seem like a truly fortunate couple. You also have excellent
taste - the site looks beautiful. Though I haven't yet had time to see everything,the
engagement story moved me to tears! I wish you all the best.
Shauna Johnson: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job!
Bill Butler: Comments: Technology is an amazing thing....with a little digital tampering
even you and Adam can be made to look good! I'm such a bored old sheep farmer I spend my
days looking at other people's wedding albums. (Along with a couple of thousand others, I
see)
On a serious note...GREAT site! I feel so proud my little Jimmy is growing up. Your wife
is quite a pretty woman. Congratulations to you both!
Vicki Palmer (Dave the Photographer's Significant
Other): Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: This is the first time I've seen the page since you were making

times as you guys have! You made Dave sound wonderful! (which he is!)
We just got on-line yesterday, so I hope I did the e-mail address right. If not,
give us a call! -Vicki
Erica Lee: Evaluation: It was totally cool! Great job! Comments: I must say from the descriptions and pictures alone that you &
your guest seem blissfully happy. The pictures and story sounds like something
straight out of a storybook. Your wedding looked fabulous. I can only hope that my
wedding day is filled with the love, respect, and beauty of yours. Best Wishes!!!
