5 years ago today

5 years ago on this date me and mike had gotten married. it was along engagment. okay you may not think that a year is all that long but it was for me LOL. there was days during our engagment that i wish we was already married but we both wanted to wait until we had everything and we didnt want to rush getting it all together. we had to pay for just about everything for our wedding except for the food and my wedding dress. my parents paid for the food and my wedding dress. we was wanting to have a outside wedding but we could never find a place that we liked and that was cheap. so we got married in a church. we wasnt a member of a church so i had to call around to some churches. i called this one churh and they was wanting us to pay for nearly $500 for the use of the church but we had to clean up and we couldnt use it for the rehearsel and we couldnt decorate. so that wasnt worth it. so i called this other church and they only wanted what we could afford to donate. so we went with that church. and we got to use it for the rehearsal and we could decorate to. pluse we had to clean up but it was worth it all. i think we had donated like a $100 (we wasnt made out of money then or now lol). first our colors was going to be purple and silver but everyone kept saying that wasnt a pretty colors for a wedding. then it was going to be blue, a pale yellow, and a cream color. but i think we really didnt have a set color because i got tired of everyone telling me i should have this color or that. i didnt get to pick out my wedding dress neither. i couldnt never get anyone to carry me to look at dresses. so a aunt went to this store that sells wedding dress cheap and picked one out. the first one i really loved it but it didnt fit. so we sent it back to her and she carried it back and picked out another one and sent it to me. it fit. i liked it but i loved that first one. i wish it had fit. the rehearsal went good just alittle long. i think i didnt get in bed until late that night. then i got up early the day of the wedding but i slept good the night before. i think that was because me and mike stayed together. i know what you are thinking the bride and groom isnt suppose to see each other until the bride is walking down the aisle but we didnt care. we wanted to be together. i think it helped with the nerves and helped us sleep better. so we got up early the day of the wedding and started getting ready. i waited until we got to the church to put my dress on. i thought mike was so hot in his tux. ( i wonder if i could get him to another tux on LOL). my family was suppose to show up like a hour before the wedding started so that way we could have gotten pictures taken. but nope they didnt show up until like 10 minutes until the wedding and then we had to rush to get dressed. no i didnt have my wedding dress on yet because i didnt want to sit in a room by myself until they got there. i didnt do anything special with my hair. didnt really have help with it. a cousin help me up my veil on and i had to put my own make up on. well i didnt mind putting my own make up on though. t it wasnt nothing special really. i wanted big curls all over my hair but i didnt have help to get them. you may be wondering well she going to tell us how many people we invited. well we invited like a 100 people but only 10 should up. i walk down the aisle and i see mike standing up there under the arch and i though how did i get so lucky to have met this man and to have him marrying me. if you wondering if we had cried or not, nope we didnt. because we had made a deal that we will not cry. well everything goes smoothly and we get married and have the reception and then we leave to go on our honeymoon to six flags and that is all i am saying on that.

so that is the story of our wedding. and the pass five years have been wonderful. and i am pretty sure that we will have plenty more wonderful years together.
