As some people are aware, we have canceled our wedding which was
planned for the end of April in Legoland California. The reasons for
this are personal rather than logistical.
A brief e-mail went out to the invitation list a few days ago. In it,
people were asked to keep the news low-key until we were ready to
resurface from a much needed quiet period. We are grateful for this
wish being respected, and for privately received kind words which have
meant so much to us...we thank you for this sympathy and concern.
To those who had arranged plane tickets, accommodations, etc., and
those who have gifts, we understand completely if you are upset with us.
Please believe how sorry we are for putting the brakes on everything at
such a late date, when so much was already rolling. We wish that some
magic apology could make it all better, but in reality this is an
irreparable fiasco -- one for which we feel terrible.
The next few days will still be difficult for us, and we apologize in
advance for any momentary absences online that may occur during this
recovery time.
Todd & Suz

Apology accepted wholeheartedly! I hope that you'll both be able to sort out
the problems, and remain close friends and an important part of the Lugnet
community.

I have to say that I feel the same as Ross, our community was founded by
you, and that friendship is of paramount importance.
Many who planned to attend hold zero ill will, as they (me) still plan to go
down to LEGOLAND anyhow. Granted, we will sorely miss Todd and Suz and the
arrangements they had made, but we still honor them and their intentions.
Wishing you the best,

Dear Todd and Suz,
As much as I'm sure people might be disappointed for plans falling through -
we're all human. Things happen. I think (hope) I speak for everyone here
when I wish you all the best.
Take care, alright?
With love,
-Shiri

I think I speak for many who say we're disappointed, but not upset. Marriage
is a personal thing done for personal reasons, and I can't think of a
sillier thing to do than continue with a marriage because "other people
expected a wedding". Kudos for making a tough decision and making it with
class. (1)
I won't be changing my plans and look forward to meeting many new faces in
southern California the last weekend in April, although I'd rather have done
it under more auspicious circumstances. As you might well imagine, some of
us have been talking behind the scenes about that weekend, with some
organising and suchlike going on.
Should you or anyone still be planning to come to CA and you aren't already
aware of this discussion please drop me a line and I'll hook you up.
All the best to Suz and Todd no matter what.
1 - and kudos to all the people who got the initial note about this and kept
it under their hat till now. Mark of a true friend is to be able to keep a
confidence.

I have to say I'm sorry that you aren't getting married.
I hope the two of you can work it out.
Sorry if this sounds lame.

I don't really know Todd or Suzanne all that well, but I'm sorry to
hear this.

I dunno. Sounds like a good number of people have vacation time scheduled
and plane tickets to Legoland. I can't see that part being a bad thing...
Perhaps the First Annual-Or-However-Often-We-Get-Around-To-It LUGnet
Legoland Pilgrimage is about to happen. Or something like that. While
nobody plans a wedding with the question of "what happens if we call it
off", this works pretty well; you scheduled it for somewhere people
wanted to go anyhow. I think your non-Lego families are probably worse
off than LUGnet, which brings us to...

...those family-and-friend types are the ones who'll need need your time,
anyhow. And y'all theirs.
No apologies are necessary if you need to take a break from LUGnet. Some
things are more important. We humans are not unlike large Lego contraptions
in this manner; when we fall, we get damaged and we take a while to put back
together... and we're never quite rebuilt the same way twice.
Take some time, get things back together; you know where to find us if you
need us. We'll try not to crash the server...

Todd & Suz,
It saddens me that I won't be getting the chance this time to meet the
legends, I think we all understand that these things happen. I know you two
will work things out.
Cheers,

As I said before I really don't know what to be said at these times, but
at least the one thing is that I'm sure of, arrangements of other people
and such ,s the last thing that you should worry about. I hope you can
work out the things, and decide the best for both of you.

My thoughts and best wishes are with you both.

I know you were specific in the email to send it on April 2, rather than April
1. And I noted that you said it was no joke and that we should keep it quiet (I
did), but STILL thought it was an April Fool's Day joke!
Okay, so I'm a big mook.
Todd & Suzanne, I certainly hope that at some point you do decide to continue
on with the wedding, with or without us. I also hope that nothing we've done or
said here online exacerbated any personal circumstances that might have lead to
this decision.

I hope this doesn't sound crass, but please do keep us informed as to the
operational responsibilities at LUGNET if anything has changed or will be
changing.
Sincerely,
Christopher Weeks

I'm looking for some assistance with CLSotW duties, but no real changes have
been discussed or planned.
