Wedding Bells for Librarian in Black
The Librarian in Black is now a married woman. Last weekend I was married in a small private ceremony here in beautiful Marin, at which a few close friends and family were present. I decided to go with a hyphenated name, so I will henceforth be known as Sarah Houghton-Jan.
So, to sum up:
Sarah is married.
Sarah Houghton = Sarah Houghton-Jan
Any questions?

*ambles in, looks around* "Hey, what gives with all the commen.... HOLY CRAP! I forgot to send S.H. and email before she switched to S.H-J. Oh man, she's gonna thing I forgot or something. No, no, really, I sent the gift last week. What? It didn't arrive yet?" *Can't think of anything else witty to say and ambles out of room, looking at the floor*
Seriously though Sarah, nice work and many, many wishes for happiness for both of you.

Congratulations!
And welcome to the Hyphenated Librarians Club. (Is "hyphenated librarians" hyphenated?)

Oh yes, Mr. Jan wears a lot of black too, though not exclusively.
Posted by: Sarah Houghton (LiB) | August27, 2006
Yay! Congrats! The small wedding ceremonies are the best -- the most "real" and intimate. I hope your married life is as joyful as mine has been thus far. :)

Sincere best wishes from Idaho - we had been sending you good wedding weather vibes!

Congratulations! Does Mr. Jan wear black, too, or will that be your domain?
Posted by: Iris | August26, 2006
All the best to you and yours, Sarah! Congratulations! :-)

Hyphenated names are cool--and I'm glad everyone else got here before me, so now I know all about the pronunciation, dress color, etc., and can avoid sounding overly curious by asking. :-) Congratulations and best wishes for the future!

Many happy years to you and the mister.

Hey Sarah!
I didn't realize that your wedding was coming up so quickly! Many, many congratulations, and of course loads of best wishes!

Arg. Comment moderation makes it look like I can't read.

So...the Librarian in Black in White? (There's a horribly corny joke in my head, but I'll spare everyone.)
Congratulations!

So, two thumbs up:
Stephen is happy to hear.
Sarah Houghton = Sarah Houghton-Jan
No questions.
Posted by: Stephen Francoeur | August24, 2006
People just want to see the black wedding dress. ;)
Posted by: Steve Lawson | August24, 2006
I did not wear black, as that was one battle with my mother I did not want to fight. I wore a sleeveless floor-length plain silver silk evening gown. There was black underneath the gown, so I kept true to my moniker at some level :)
Posted by: Sarah Houghton (LiB) | August24, 2006
Jan like Jan :) I'm the only one in our family with Swedish blood.
Posted by: Sarah Houghton (LiB) | August24, 2006
Congratulations!!! But I have just one small question ... did you wear white? or keep with tradition and wear black?
Posted by: Helene Blowers | August24, 2006
Mazel tov to the both of you. Is that Jan like "jan" or Jan like "yon" pronunciationwise?
Posted by: jessamyn | August24, 2006
Thanks everyone for your well-wishes. And to answer Steve's question, he's still Mr. Jan. I had to look up TIWWOP, but found that it stands for "Thread Is Worthless Without Pictures." I don't think that's true. My intention in posting was not to say get "ooh, ahh" reactions to my dress, or our rings, or the setting. It was primarily about the name-change. I have chosen consciously not to post pictures of my significant other, per his wishes, and will continue to respect that wish.
Posted by: Sarah Houghton (LiB) | August24, 2006
TIWWOP! Congrats!
Posted by: Sarah | August24, 2006
Congratulations, may you and your husband share a long, happy and healthy life together!
Posted by: Michelle | August24, 2006
Congratulations, Sarah and Mr. Jan-Houghton. (Or is that not how it works?) Sincere best wishes.

Congratulations!

Hooray for you and yours! Congrats!

No questions, just best wishes for a healthy and prosperous future!
