I followed your link from The Office board at NBC.com to read this and I was not at all disappointed. I read all 10 chapters in one sitting and was most impressed by your dialogue - I could totally hear them delivering these lines. It was wonderfully romantic without getting graphic and I was smiling the whole time I read it - a job very well done because I always have to overcome my guilt to enjoy the guilty pleasure that is fan fiction.
Thanks so much for all the time and effort you put into this. I hope you write some more - I will definitely look for it.
Now if only those dang NBC boards would let me post! Every time I try I just get booted out to the main menu and I can't even contact anyone about it because it just does the same thing.

Wow! It was so nice to read your review and let me thank you for taking the time to read and review. I am a die-hard JAM romantic and this story is my little daydream. Although, now that Jim has flashed us that ring, we may see a Mr. and Mrs. Halpert soon!
Unfortunately, I can't help you with the NBC boards. I'm not sure how you can solve that problem. But, if you are looking for another Office fan forum, come and visit www.jamtherapy.com. Many of us there used to be at nbc, but have since created our own forum. Also, scrantonbranch is a mod at nbc and posts at jamtherapy as well, so you may want to send her a private message to see if she can help you with your nbc problem.
Once again, thank you. It was a real treat getting your review today.

Hey Bee! What a fittin gend to a great story! The wedding made me cry. I felt like I was there! It so sweet you used the vows from your wedding. They are beautiful! You're going to write more fanfic, right?
Author's Response:
Thanks so much sb. I've got another crier! I love it!
I may dabble again in fanfic one day. Maybe I'll be inspired by the new eps!
Thanks for reading and reviewing.

But wait! Don't you want (ahem... WE want) a little epilogue chapter, about how this "secret" wedding, away from the DM family, goes over with Michael and Dwight and all those other crazies? Just a short, sweet one???? Puh-lEEEEEEEze?
Maybe... some of us, just having trouble with seeing this great story come to an end....
Author's Response:
Awww...thanks. It has crossed my mind to to an epilogue. I'll think about it. If the muse cooperates, we may just see the bells of Dunder Mifflin ring out for Jim and Pam.
Thanks so much for reading and reviewing. I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

*Sniff* This was beautiful, Beeswax!
I hope we get to see a canon Jam Wedding someday!
Author's Response:
Dare to dream, lisa! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for reading and reviewing so often. It means a lot to me.
I also want to thank you again for being my Hawaii research assistant for this story. You really helped my story have an authentic feel.

amazing...just read it all!!! can't wait to read some more of your stories...loved it all!!
Author's Response:
Wow! That's a tall order. Thank you so much for reading it all in one sitting. It probably flows a lot better than me giving little pieces over 6 months.
This was my first attempt at fanfic. I'm not sure if I'll write any more, but if an idea strikes me, I know where to come.
Thanks so much for reading and reviewing. I'm glad you loved it.

This ending was beautiful (I cried). I've been following (and loving) this story from the beginning and I have to say that this ending was perfect! I hope we get to see a JAM wedding one day, and I hope it's as perfect as this!
Author's Response:
I hope this doesn't sound wierd, but I'm so happy that I made you cry! Seriously, though, some of my favourite stories on here have moved me to tears and I'm glad that you connected to my story. Well, it's really Jim and Pam that we are all connecting to and we can thank the writers and John and Jenna for that.
Thanks so much for following this story all the way through and I'm so glad you enjoyed the ending.

Bees, that was fantastic. Your attention to detail was incredible--I could picture the entire wedding. I love the dress you chose for Pam..PERFECT! Such a sweet story and such a sweet couple. It will be such a letdown when the show comes back from hiatus and Jim and Pam are NOT married! (Just kidding, the new show will most definitely NOT be a letdown, but your story gives us something to swoon about until Dinner Party airs.) You done good!
Author's Response:
Thank you so much for reading and supporting this story. Becky gave me good advice and told me to write for myself, which is what I did, but I also wrote for friends like you. We're all romantics at heart and that's what this story was all about. Love and romance.
Thanks for your wonderful review.

Bees, that was so great, and entirely worth the wait! You did an amazing job of setting up a touching and believable ceremony, right down to what they wore. This was a very fun story and a good way to pass the time while we await the return to the small screen of our beloved couple.
This line was just really sweet and sounds like something Jim would just do, because he could.... “Nothing. I just wanted to call you Beesly one last time.”
Anyway, this was a great effort and I'm really glad you found a way to tie up the money scene. It was much enjoyed!
Author's Response:
Awww, thanks buddy. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
It was definitely a fun way to pass the time while we waited for our beloved show to return. 47 more days!!!

Aww this gave me flutters and it seems exactly as i pistured their wedding would be :]
Author's Response:
Thanks so much for reading and taking the time to review. I'm glad I have those two crazy kids married off.
Maybe this is what's been going on during the strike?

Perfect, Bees. You addressed the ball, swung the bat, and knocked it out of the park. This is such a lovely conclusion to a wonderful story; the Fine Work Award Dundie and ten Stanley Nickels to you, my friend! --CH
Author's Response:
Well, thank you, Oh Mighty Beta! I will split my Stanley Nickels with you and maybe we can trade them in for flying unicorns and fly away together over the rainbow.
Seriously, again, a million thanks.
