Congrats Ellen & Portia!!

I'm so happy for the two of you!! I wish you two gals the very best y mucho mas (and much more). I hope true love finds me one day soon. San Antonio, Texas loves you Ellen!

Always me! Mousie

Dear Ellen,
I did not register at that place for yor present, but I thought this would be better.
I want to wish you and Portia the same great LOVE that I have for my husband. Duane and I met as children in a little town in PA. We don't know when we fell in love.But here were are still together (34 years this June 16). We married in August of 1983 and I know that in June you are allowed to marry. How wonderful!!! This year is our 25th wedding anniversary and I would marry him again if he asked me tomorrow. My wish also is to hear that you and Portia are still together and still have the same love in 34 years. Can't wait to see your wedding pictures and to see the rings. Lots of love to you two. Linda

DEAR ELLEN,

I JUST HAD TO WRITE AGAIN TO TELL YOU HOW MUCH I LOVE YOUR SHOW. THERE'S NOT MUCH TO SMILE ABOUT THESE DAYS, BUT I ALWAYS SMILE, LAUGH EVEN, WHEN I WATCH YOUR SHOW.

IT IS A TRULY GIFTED PERSON THAT CAN RAISE ONES SPIRIT. YOU ARE TRULY BLESSED ELLEN AND I THANK GOD FOR SHARING YOU WITH US.

CONGRADULATION ON YOUR UPCOMING WEDDING. PEOPLE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO BE WHO THEY ARE. GOD EXCEPTS US THE WAY WE ARE. HOW DARE ANYONE TO PRESUME THEY KNOW BETTER.

THANKS AGAIN FOR BEING THERE.

YOUR FAITHFUL FAN, EILEEN

According to the books on ettique you are supposed to tell the groom congratulations and the bride felliciations. I don't know why and I would have to look up felliciations to be sure of the difference. So, like all the others wishing the two of you a life of happiness and love - Congratulations!

I know that you don't want wedding gifts, but have you thought of the charity "thing" like you did for your birthday. Provide choices from yours and Portia's favorite charities.

Hi Ellen, You are such a doll! If there is anyone kinder than you, I am just not sure it could be possible, unless it is Portia. She looks like a little girl in a candy shop when she looks at you. You are great, and it's nice to hear that people took you seriously about the Crate and Barrell. Your kindness brings out the best in other people, too!

Dear Ellen,
Just want to take a minute to say congratulations to you and Portia. You are a wonderful person and deserve nothing but the very best. I am so very happy for you and Portia. I wish you both all the happiness in the world. I noticed that a lot of people are giving you all kinds of suggestions on how to keep a relationship going. I am not here to do that but to thank you for making your relationship public and to congratualte you and to wish you peace, love and happiness. Kim

Congrats to you and Portia! May you both continue to find bliss in your love together as you move on to the joys and challenges of married life. I'm so happy that you have found the ONE. You and Portia are a lovely couple and a great inspiration to our community.

My partner and I also live in California and we have been waiting for this day for years! While we are registered domestic partners, this designation somehow lacks the depth of committment that we feel marriage portrays. We are celebrating 7 years together in July and I am looking forward to having a ceremony as soon as possible. We didn't anticipate this monumental event happening in California this year so we currently have nothing planned!

Congrats again, Ellen and Portia!

great move !!! I have done the trip a couple times, one unfortunatly had to die, the other of 15 years we just fell apart, but gladly are still best of friends. My current one of 10 years is great and surprised me with my sister from ohio and all our closest friends!! what a great day. I know you two will share many more years together and I wish you both all the best. Bravo!!! foy all your honesty and support for our comminity. keep up all your great work Bobby and kenny in florida at last!!

Congrats! We applaud you for being so bold and normal and not being ashamed to declare your love to Portia on TV. Thank you for all you do to bring recognition to the gay communities.

Tammy and I have been together for 8 years. We are married in our hearts even if Texas will only allow us to have a Holy Union Certificate.

Your show is a scream. I laugh so hard.

Dear Ellen and Portia,

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I am so happy for you. I just want to wish you all the happiness in the world. I hope you and Portia have a life time of love, happiness, and understanding for each other. You both deserve the best. You seem to be a truly sweet and caring person and deserve everything good that life has to give. Best wishes.

Ellen, the best to you and Portia. You seem to be such a truly kind person, it's great when good people are blessed with terrific karma. Blessings to you both!!

Dear Portia and Ellen

Congratulations, it feels my heart with joy to find people deeply inlove commited enough to marriage. I am sure your life will change a bit being married but I hope you the best from the bottom of my heart. You should come up here to Canada to get married but of course it's always up to you. I hope you have the most spectacular wedding. Here is a blessing that I thought was appropriate.

Understanding is the Wellspring of Hope

Everything about us is always in a state of becoming. Help it to become better than it was when you found it and your relationship will, in its turn, bless your world

Have a wonderful day!
-Brendan

Congrats Hellen, This is awesome news. Don't ya get tired of those people quoting the bible? People, they're the worst. Besides, there must be a gazillion bibles out there cuz I've never heard of most of them. I think I could write my own bible so I could quote myself. This is from Mary, Chapter 10, vs 8. "Thou shall marry Thee." Now, don't quote me on that cuz I haven't been published yet. Love ya, Mary

ellen i wish you and portia all the best.

Congratulations Ellen and Portia. You deserve every happiness.

Congratulations Ellen and Portia! This news is just awesome. I am so happy for the both of you. You make people laugh each and everyday. My sister and I were lucky to attend one of your shows last year before I moved to Arizona and you made my sister and I laugh. It was actually the first time we were able to have a day just the two of us. Thank you. Blessings to the both of you.

I was very happy to hear yall were getting married , thats wonderful. Wish we were so lucky here in Texas. Maybe one day. Anyway I hope you have a blessed day. Maybe ALL OF AMERICA should follow Califorinas lead and extend this basic right to all its citizens. How many more years do we need before we have equality for ALL??? Best to both of you, Joey Z

Dear Ellen,

Dear Ellen and Portia... I was so excited when California knocked down the ban on same-sex marriages, and the first person that I thought of was you... and I almost cried when I heard your announcement on TV. I wish you both all the happiness in the world... how lucky you are to have found each other.

Best of everything, Deb Johnston, Irving, TX
