Well done Amy - great news!
I never called Angie my fiancee - it sounds too pretentious... Neither did I call her my partner as that made me sound gay... I just called her my girlfriend until I got married...

Congratulations!
But why oh why oh why, it will cost a fortune, there are no tax advantages, and therefore there is no financial payback or break-even analysis which could possibly justify the expense
(you can tell I am an economist with no sense of romance, but after 18 years, 2 huge mortgages and 2 children, why bother!!)
Good luck to you and your intended, I hope the wedding plans go well, don't think about the 'afterlife' until you get there
