My Simple Life?

After many conversations that begin “… I don’t know if you remember, but at my wedding I had…” I have realized that people (or maybe just me) don’t remember any details from your wedding.

I couldn’t tell you what one centerpiece looked like. I have no clue what any bouquets looked like (including the ones I carried), no lasting impressions of ceremony flowers, lines or cake.  I basically have zero recollection of any of these details. This is not due to excessive drinking (well, that may be the case for Bridget’s, but we were young). I don’t even think it has anything to do with the fact that I was not in a place where a wedding was on my mind.

I have realized that at each wedding I have cared so much for the couple and have been so happy for them that nothing else really mattered. This is a relief. We are only inviting people we love AND most importantly they love us enough to notice if everything is not perfect. So back to the original plan…less stress more fun.
