It started like this on 12 February 2003 on LAVALIFE, a computer dating web site (oh, the shame), when a guy sent a girl a note:

HE SAID........................................................................................................................................................

"spontaneous smiles are the only smiles worth smiling, i think. thanks for giving me one when i read your profile. it is beautiful.
vince"

The girl was curious (translation: charmed and suspicious). She sent a reply.
SHE SAID......................................................................................................................................................

"vince vince vince
it takes someone who is and contains beauty to recogize it. thanks for the kind and ripe words.
--stacy"

AND THEN......................................................................................................................................................

He said he was studying phrenology and, therefore, needed to see her photo. She thought he was full of doo-doo, but clever. So she complied. He asked her for a date. She accepted. She told him she'd be late for the date. She was, very late. He thought she was full of doo-doo, but clever. So he said it was okay. They made another date. When he picked her up, they discovered each was wearing the same Kenneth Cole belt, the same Doc Martin boots. They even had the same cookbooks. That night, they saw some terrible community theater. It was great fun.

Five years passed. They kept finding things to talk about, to argue about, to laugh about, to share.

He figured he'd like to live with her until the end. So he asked her to marry him. He cried. And she said yes. Then she cried. And so everybody will laugh and party on 31 May, wishing the Muszynski girl and Cavasin boy continued good luck and beauty and love....

A stone's throw from where we're interlocking--in Interlochen--Stacy was born. Her crazy mom and dad and five brothers and sisters were camping, in Traverse City, in the state park.

Vince has always loved simple and sustaining things--stars and woods and grilling on an outdoor fire.

Together, we got lucky. The place we found to celebrate our lives and love feels like home.

For info on Frog Pond Village, where the wedding and reception are being held, see stacandvin.com. You'll also find maps and accommodations.

Cavazynski friends and family! We're so happy you're here to celebrate our continuing journey.

Our first stop after the ceremony and celebration on 31 May: The northest North, where desolation meets mystical romance--and where we hope to meet some serious relaxation while it sinks in: we did it. We really did it. We're really and truly . . . together.

Love,
Stacy & Vince
