Can you say "Elope"?

Was the best wedding I'd ever been in (pun intentional, I'm on #3)
1 PM, depart for Reno
6 PM , secure License
7 PM, secure hotel room
8 PM, secure ring
9 PM, say I do.
10PM, call relatives and blow their mind
11PM, start honeymoon
3 AM, depart for home
6 AM go to work like nothing happened

David Riker, happily married for 7 years and counting (this time)
