Very unique!

Well, Bridesmaid dresses are notoriously bad, just Angela's are in another way.
So cute - Jim licking the lip gloss.
I feel so sorry for Jim, because she doesn't really want to get married, and that is so different than other stories where she is like, oh, that was roy, you are you, lets get married, because I think she would be slightly disillusioned, even though jim is jim and not roy. But then she does turn around, and so that is just great, because as much as the other is understandable, this version is happier.
"Kelly and Andy were involved in a relatively serious conversation debating the merits of Angelina Jolie’s plan to adopt a child from each continent."
Hum, they might have a hard time finding one from Antartica... unless they adopt a penguin baby.
Very very good first time foray into office fanfic, much better than most other first timers (and even some long timers)
Author's Response:
Yes, and Antarctic baby would be difficult... but Angie and Brad seem determined to find a way! LOL ;)
I am pretty much in love with this review, you totally get what I'm trying to do with Pam... I just don't see her wanting to jump into anything serious with Jim right away because of what happened with Roy and the long engagement... I would love to see them just elope one day just so she doesn't have to go through that pain of having to plan another wedding... and of course it would be romantic and sweet and something Jim would also find appealing I am guessing.
THANK YOU so much for your compliment. I have read so much great fic here that I was a little hesitant about posting it but I appreciate your kind feedback.

What a great story. I love the Shrute wedding. Funny. Maybe you can do a sequel with Jim and Pam getting hitched. Nice job.

I really love this! You got the characters spot on, really impressive, especially for a first fic. AWESOME.

This was really, really good. Awesome job, hope to see more from you soon!

Aw! I love it. I myself am vehemently anti-marriage, but I can see how Jim Halpert could get a girl to change her mind. Such a sweet, funny, authentic story. You did great!

You did great! Wonderful story! The Angela/Dwight wedding has GOT to happen before the show ends.

That was fun!
I'm looking forward to seeing where it goes next.

Thank you for doing that! I am an idiot. I will remember next time. And I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Tequila shots all around! This calls for a celebration. Good job and welcome. I hope this isn't the last we'll be hearing from you.

That was such a great first story to our little fandom. I think you did a great job of capturing the character, even sulky, passive-aggressive Pam. Wreath of beets! Hee.
Author's Response: I am totally flattered with the blue ribbon. WOW! Thank you so much!

This was great. You really have their voices down, and it's totally believable that Pam would be a little weird about weddings, marriage, etc. I really liked this! Great job :)

Adorable in a million ways. Great voices for all the characters and an incredibly funny and believable premise. Wonderful job on your first Office fic! Write more!!!!!!

Strong, strong debut. Great characterization, several laughs, warm, sweet, and believable. I look forward to more.

You did an awesome job! I loved it all but Jim's last line was my favorite
“If I can’t put produce on you and publicly proclaim our love, Beesly, then I think we should just call the whole thing off.”
Ha! Can't wait to read more from you
Author's Response: Thanks so much. I could just picture Dwight's wedding being more like an "initiation" like he subjected Ryan too. Naturally, this would involve the Schrute family crop. Poor Angela. :)

Just lovely.
Author's Response: you are too kind. thanks for the response!

very good! i like it.
Author's Response: Thank you for reading and responding! :)

that was so completely adorable! I really really loved it. The whole thing about pam being anti-wedding and changing her mind...*sigh* really great job.
Author's Response: Aww, thanks Pampong! When I started writing this I intended it to be shorter and really focused more on Pam becoming anti-marriage and how Jim felt about that... it kind of took a life of its own once I brought in everyone from the office... they certainly bring the party. ;)

Yes, this was a really fun, well done piece! Kudos for it being your first attempt, too! Looking forward to reading more of your writings!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! This means a lot coming from you. I've really enjoyed your fics. :)
Date: June 06, 2007 08:12 am Title: The Maid of Honor
I loved that!!!! So well written and very interesting. I like the wreath of beets thing. I definitely suggest you think about continuing this story.
Author's Response: Thank you so much!!! I will definitely think about it. I have missed the sweet and funny Pam and Jim dynamic and I hope that came through here.
Date: June 06, 2007 08:12 am Title: The Maid of Honor
Wow! For being new to Office fic, I'd say that your first try went off without a hitch. Really, this was a lot of fun to read, so well done. :)
And I totally dig the idea of Halpert hissing. Very nice.
Author's Response:
Jim clearly did not like Andy's idea at all. Your comment was so awesome. I really appreciate the encouragement.

This was probably one of the best fics I have read in a while! Everything was so spot on! Not to mention hilarious! Fantastic job and keep up the great work!
"Big Kitty's got claws!" This line made my day, by the way. :)
Author's Response: Wow! I am truly flattered! I really do have a soft spot for Andy, he's had some of the best lines this past season. Thanks for reading!
