A public commitment made a big difference to both our families, oddly. And it was lovely for us - a huge party in celebration of us, with 80 of our closest friends and relations, all wishing us well and saying nice things about us. It's not something there's often an opportunity for, though Rob and I get to affirm our commitment to *each other* as often as we like.
If I didn't feel so close to Rob's Swedish family, it couldn't possibly have happened that way. Nor if I'd had to invite any of my ick relations.
