Today is one of my BFF’s daughter’s wedding. I have been looking forward to watching “our” youngest get married for over a year and the day has finally come! With the world in turmoil, it would be easy to get caught up in all the “what ifs” and “maybe nots,” but I refuse to travel down that road.
This morning I will head over the venue to help get the flowers set up, calm some nerves, and serve mimosas. This evening, Husband and I will snuffle (purposeful word choice because sniffle doesn’t seem quite enough and sobbing is overkill) our way through the ceremony, eat more food than we should, and celebrate the union of these two beautiful people.
Am I concerned? Yes, but I’ve loved this bride since the day she was life in her mama’s womb. The wedding is small. We will practice social distancing and dancing (I often dance alone anyway) and revel in the beauty of the moment. Tomorrow will come, but today, we celebrate!
Just Write for Me 
Congratulations! What a wonderful way to spend the day – with a sense of joy, hope, and future happiness. Continue that feeling because – why not? Thank you for sharing the beauty of your day and the blessing of life in your slice today. Perfect timing.
A beautiful light in all this uncertainty. Have a wonderful day celebrating!
Love your word “snuffle”! There are so many “what-ifs”, however, glad you are not allowing them to stop you from celebrating this special day! Congratulations! Hope you have a great time!
Oh that is so good, I’m sure it will be a wonderful wedding, even if you have to practise social distancing!
I’ve thought a lot about people who have special events planned during this time period. Some, like this one, seem too important to miss.
Such a lovely sentiment – Tomorrow will come, but today we celebrate! May today be filled with laughter and love – and a little solo dancing.
Ahh wedding day! How joyous! Congrats to the bride and groom.
I hope it was a wonderful wedding!
Yes, today we celebrate! My daughter is in a wedding the end of April, and we were just talking about how this is going to affect it. I hope your day was special!
