Because I'm MARRIED, you guys.
It's so cliche but it was the most wonderful day of our lives.
Highlights: 1) H (!) cried pretty much the entire day out of happiness. He's not normally affectionate, so this was a huge deal for me. He could not have been more sweet or happy. 2) My sister and Dad's toasts were unreal. They were amazing. My sister incorporated my favorite movie, It's A Wonderful Life, into the toast and ended it with, "To my big sister, the richest girl in town." I ugly sobbed. 3) Guy BFF called our photographer, me, my husband (!!!), and a few other people over to the patio at the reception, and explained in front of everyone the bet I made with him and our two other friends when we were in high school about who would get married first. Everybody had me getting married last except him. He pulled out the napkin we wrote our bets on 12 YEARS AGO and made us pay up for losing the bet, and also sign our names on it to verify it. 4) The weather was perfect. And H's dad, who has very progressive MS, was able to be with us the entire day. 5) Everybody came back to the hotel afterward and we got drunk on that patio until 2:30 am, my parents, aunts, uncles and our friends included. The damage: 6 pizzas, a $1200 bar tab, and my husband's liver. And mine.
You looked stunning, but more importantly, your joy is so apparent in your photos and in your post! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness with your husband!
