Tell us about your wedding or dream wedding?
Well unfortunately I never got the dream wedding that I use to dream about growing up. The white elegant wedding that took place outside, by a lake with hay bails as chairs ( I know I am country)
and my bridesmaids dressed in yellow, being walked down the isle by the groomsmen in a black tux. And then Me being walked by my dad in my long white dress that took up almost the whole isle.
Well all this became a dream to me when my dad passed away when I was 17. Once Joe proposed to me and we started talking about wedding plans I realized that it was the hardest thing I have had to do since my dad has been gone. It was depressing to think about, and wedding planning is supposed to be fun. However, I really DID want an actually ceremony, but with timing and all what we had was perfect. The only thing I would change is that I wish my family could have been there. We ended up planning to get married after his basic training In San Antonio Tx and the River walk. His family was there and we had an actual ceremony where we had to say vows and all. Although I was not prepared one bit, I thought we would just saw the traditional vows, but I was caught on the spot and said a bunch of random stuff. HA. We did talk about having a actual caremony so both of our families could be there, but about halfway through planning it all we realized that it was a waste of money and that we would just have an reception to celebrate with family.
It might not have been my dream wedding, but I can say that It was the best day of my life becuase I got to marry the man of my dreams, and the man that I love with all my heart. He is truly my life and hands down the best day. We even went to Sea world afterwords. : )
I think your court house wedding was beautiful <3
