Last week, we put our wedding thank you cards in the mail. With the many life changes we have been going through (i.e., moving, traveling, job hunting, etc.), it took a while but we finally sent them out. If you haven’t received yours yet, don’t worry; we are still crunching through the last of them or they may still be making their way to you. Thanks again to all who have given us compliments on the included photo. We just wanted to give you one last keepsake of our special day to remember us by. Speaking of our photos, our wonderful wedding photographer, Craig Rucker, has included us in his photo galleries: No. 26 (bridal party) and No. 59 (the couple, as seen in the thank you cards) under the Extraordinary Moments section. There’s also No. 9 (April’s shoes) in the Fabulous Details section and No. 4 (engagement photo with guitar) in the True Romance section. If you get a chance, check them out on his website at www.craigrucker.com. His work is beautiful and he’s so great to work with. We recommend him to anyone and everyone.

Wow it's been a long time since we've posted an update. We're finally all settled in at our new place in Alameda, Calif. and are getting into the groove of a regular routine. With that will come many updates to this website. We have so many pictures to share and so much to get you all caught up on. Come back after the weekend to see photo galleries from the week of the wedding, April's bachelorette party, the wedding rehearsal, both wedding receptions, our honeymoon and more. For now, if you haven't done so yet, click on the photo album from the May 1 update to see our wedding-day slide show. As always, please drop us a line if you have the time. We'd love to hear from you.

Click on the wedding album icon to the right to see the show. We apologize for not posting more frequently. We are moving in at the new apartment tomorrow and will need to get settled in before we can post the additional photo galleries but please be patient and check back often. Thanks to everyone who's already shared their photos with us too! If you took photos that day, we'd love to see them so do drop us a line. We'll get those other galleries up and running soon. And as always, if you've stopped by, please sign the guest book and let us know that you came to visit.

We just wanted to give a special shout-out and say thank you to our event coordinator, Amanda Ma of Fresh Events Company. Her and her colleague Ada Chan helped us plan and coordinate the wonderful reception at Town & Gown. They really know how to put on a great party. If you had a good time at our reception, we certainly give our stamp of approval if you need anyone to plan your upcoming event. Check them out by clicking on the logo!

We're back! Thank you all for celebrating our wedding day with us. We were so blessed to be graced with your presence on the most important day of our lives. We hope that you were also just as blessed by the ceremony and the time of fellowship that ensued. If you were, we would love to hear from you. You can drop us a note or post right in our guest book. Click on the guest book icon on the right hand side to write us! Right now, we're just trying to get back into the swing of things. We'll be moving into our new place in Alameda, Calif. on May 1 and can't wait to have our first visitors. We're not done updating this page just yet. Check back soon as we post pictures from April's bachelorette and birthday weekend, the wedding week tailgate BBQ, April and Jeremy's last week before the wedding, the wedding rehearsal and rehearsal dinner, the wedding itself, the tea ceremony and both of the receptions. Lastly, we'll be posting pics from our Bed and Breakfast Getaway in San Diego, Calif. from just yesterday as soon as we can so please don't stay away too long.

Hi everyone. We've been quite busy since Jeremy got into town last Sunday, doing all of our last-minute wedding preparation. It's been nice to see and spend time with visiting family. April returned from her bachelorette party weekend to a birthday BBQ last Sunday too so we'll have pictures up after the wedding. Well, we've got one more day to go. Today should be fun as we attend our own wedding rehearsal. We can't thank you all enough for your love and support throughout this entire wedding planning process. We'll see you on the other side!

Nine days left and counting. We've put so many updates on the website in the past two months that going a day or two without adding something to these pages brings about withdrawal symptoms. April leaves for her birthday and bachelorette weekend in Las Vegas in less than 24 hours and returns to our wedding-week tailgate BBQ. We have a couple of meetings and plans for the week leading to the 19th but aside from that, we'll mostly be anxiously awaiting seeing all of you and celebrating with you. For now, hey, sign the guestbook would ya?

The days really go by fast don't they? April takes off for her bachelorette and birthday weekend in Las Vegas on Thursday and then Jeremy arrives in Los Angeles on Sunday to take care of all the last-minute stuff. We can't tell you how excited we are to see everyone and to celebrate with you all. Like we said last time, there's not much to update on the web so in the mean time, we'd like to share some old-school photos of us with the members of our bridal party. Click on the frames to the right to see each of our slide shows.

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling BeeIt's hard to believe that there are only two weeks left until the big day. We're surprisingly under control even though people are constantly asking us if we're nervous or whether or not we're ready for everything. Since there's not much to update on the website, we thought we'd share a little known fact with everyone. You may know that we like to take in a musical or a theater show whenever we get the chance but did you know that...? Click on the Spelling Bee button here to find out the story behind it.

March 27, 2008 | 11:11 p.m.
24 days to go. Well, that's just about it folks. We're finally done with the website. The last thing we did was update the proposal story. It's sort of just a time line for those who have way too much time on their hands. Visit the Proposal Page to check it out. From here on out, we'll just add a couple of photo albums, including the highly anticipated Bechelorette Party Album. We will also put a couple of random entries up to let you all know how we are doing as the big day nears so stay tuned. Thanks for coming to visit as often as you do. If you drop by, please drop us a note in the guest book. We'd love to know that you came to visit. April 19 is not far off and we're both looking forward to celebrating with you on the big day.

26 days to go. Jeremy made it back to the East Bay safely. In the mean time, he's had a chance to post the pictures from his bachelor party weekend. Check out the Photos Page or click on the photo album here to see the slide show. We've finally gotten the last of our wedding favors decided on. We had some major troubles finding a place that had enough of the particular ones we wanted but after much searching and diligence, we're all set.

March 24, 2008
| 8:33 a.m.
27 days to go. Just wanted to provide a quick update about what we've changed on the website. Like the last post mentioned, we've added photos from the wedding shower and we've also set a date and time for the traditional Chinese tea ceremony. We have a couple more photo albums to add to the Photo Page in the next few days including the one from Jeremy's bachelor party. We'll also complete the proposal story details so come back to visit again soon. Don't forget to sign the guestbook too!

Click here to see the Wedding Shower slide showHappy Easter! We just wanted to thank everyone who attended our wedding shower/engagement party this Saturday. It was great to see so many familiar faces, especially those we haven’t seen in a while. The day was filled with yummy food, hilarious games, and great company. Kudos to our matron of honor Christine and best man Nat, for organizing such a great event! We didn’t know what to expect but you guys really blew us away. It was new experience for us to be guests at our own party, as we are usually part of the planning committee. We loved simply arriving and enjoying ourselves along with everyone else. A special thank you to all the family and friends who lent a hand (or a dish) in preparation for the event. You always come through for us and we love you all! We hope you all had just as much fun as we did and pray God sends you a special blessing. Click on the album to see our wedding shower slide show.

Take a look - we've posted lyrics to the songs we'll be using in the wedding ceremony and added links to more videos on the Proposal Page. We've also added the lyrics to We Could Be In Love to the Story Page so you can read the words that were on Jeremy's mind when he first told April that he was in love with her.

March 18, 2008
| 2:15 a.m.
Slowly but surely. We've posted our pictures from our engagement photo shoot with our wedding photographer Craig Rucker. You can see them in a slideshow on our Photos Page or you can access larger versions of the images at our Picasa website.

March 17, 2008
| 11:15 p.m.
We've updated the Receptions Page with information about the post-wedding celebrations.

March 16, 2008

You may have noticed that Jeremy's bachelor party got moved from the second weekend in April to March 14-16. That's because Jeremy was surprised and sort of kidnapped over the weekend by some of his best friends to celebrate his bachelor-hood in San Francisco. The guys dined together at an Irish Pub, an Indian Restaurant and one of Jer's favorite breakfast spots, Jim's in Alameda. On Saturday, they boarded a boat to go fishing in the Bay. They also got to experience a couple of Jeremy's favorite things in San Francisco: clam chowder bread bowls from the Fisherman's Wharf and mini-donuts from Trish's at Pier 39. After masterminding his own engagement surprise, Jer finally had the tables turned on him as he thought he was heading to Monterey for a weekend of whale watching and bar-hopping. His friends got him good when they all of a sudden showed up in the Nordstrom men's shoes section, watching the USC/UCLA basketball game. In all, it was one special and memorable weekend for Jer and some of his closest friends. Pictures to come soon.

It's finally here! Our story has been posted. It's what some might call, a novel's length; so please read it when you have a lot of spare time. We've written a short, completely mundane summary for those of you who have no patience to read long drawn out documents. We've also added our "Get to Know" pages so you can click on either one of us to learn about us as individuals. Lastly, we've added the officiants and performers who will be part of the wedding ceremony. Pictures still on the way. One thing at a time.

March 12, 2008
| 11:45 p.m.
We just booked our honeymoon trip. Because of work and other previously scheduled engagements, we decided to take our honeymoon in the summer when things were a little more clear and free. We'll be heading out to Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia the week of July 11-18.

March 11, 2008
| 3:08 a.m.
Well folks, we're at 39 days left until the big day. Sorry for the lack of updates lately. April was up in Northern California visiting when Jeremy got terribly sick. Jeremy actually flew down to LA with April for their engagement video shoot and 7th Anniversary at the Castaway last week. Check out the picture above. We've updated a couple of things including information on the Other Info Page about the upcoming wedding shower and also finally added the parents' blurbs on the Entourage Page. So check those out while they're hot. We'll get our engagement photos up in the next day or two so please come back soon. And don't forget to drop us a note in the guest book!

February 26, 2008
| 11:00 a.m.
We added some of that extra information to the Other Info Page, including our current vendor listing and directions for the wedding rehearsal and dinner.

February 25, 2008
| 1:25 a.m.
The Gifts Page now has our three gift registries listed for those would prefer to use them. We also wanted to clarify that the wedding shower on March 22 is a combined bridal shower and stag party.

February 24, 2008 | 11:45 p.m.
We uploaded our engagement video to our YouTube account earlier today. You can view it by searching YouTube or just by going to the Proposal Page. We're still working on the Story Page and a couple of other things this week so stay tuned.

February 18, 2008
| 5:23 p.m.
We've updated the Out-of-Towners Page for all of you making the trip to celebrate with us. We've listed hotel accomodations and attractions as well as an extensive list of dining choices. Even if you aren't coming from out of town, check it out and see where April and Jeremy like to eat. Sadly (but gladly for our health) we don't eat out as much anymore but if you want to take us out, you now know where we'd like to go. Enjoy!

February 11, 2008 | 2:45 p.m.
Click here to see pictures!April and Jeremy spent the weekend putting together invitations and getting some wedding stuff done while Jer was in town for a couple of days. A big thank-you to our invitation design team. Eva and Karen rock! Thanks girls. Click on the thumbnail to see a couple of pictures from the weekend!

February 4, 2008 | 12 p.m.
A couple of notes about the wedding calendar. The wedding shower date has been set. The location is still somewhat tentative but we'll get that finalized this week. Thanks to the speediness of our wedding invitation people, we no longer need much help with the assembly process. However, Jeremy will be in touch with the wedding party about getting together that weekend anyway since he will be back to put some of those invitations together himself. Stay tuned!

February 4, 2008 | 1:28 a.m.
We noticed that some of our pages were showing up weird in certain browsers so Jer fixed things (on that Wedding Page) so that everything hopefully looks the same on everyone's computers. We got our engagement photos back from the photographer and will be putting them up this week.

January 25, 2008 | 4:27 p.m.
We added some information about the church to the Wedding Page. Of course, we apologize for not having more stuff up sooner. It's been a rough go with both of our computers out of comission this week. Thank God for good friends who help us get stuff like that fixed.

January 22, 2008
| 4:21 p.m.
Just a quick announcement: If you are a groomsman or a bridesmaid, please help us assemble invitations at the Wu Family House on Saturday, February 9th. We will begin at 10 a.m. BBQ lunch will be served.

January 16, 2008 | 11:59 p.m.
We've had a little bit of a hiccup in our plans to continue updating the site. Not much of one really, but Jeremy had to pull one of those college-type all-nighters to get some work done so he's taking a little break. It was more of an all-day-er. We'll be back on the trail, getting things put on here soon though so make sure you come back.

January 15, 2008 | 3:19 a.m.
The entourage bios are more complete now. We're still working on our story and engagement pages these next few days so look for those to be updated very soon. Oh - and sign the guestbook!

January 14, 2008 | 3:05 p.m.
We've added one of them free guestbooks to our website so you can leave us messages easily. So click on by and write us something sweet. If you prefer to reach us privately, check out the contact us page for your many different options.

January 13, 2008 | 6:03 p.m.
The entourage pages have been somewhat updated with information and short blurbs about the people in our wedding party. Story and the proposal sections to come soon. Stay tuned!

January 13, 2008 | 3:23 a.m.
The site launches today after much waiting and anticipation from friends and family. There is still a lot of work to do, but with the wedding just a little over three months away, we'll be updating this site very quickly so come back often and stay long. Have fun!
