It is Oct. 30th and today was the wedding of my Uncle
It was a lovely wedding. The bride wore a lovely gown of white with a long beaded train. There was a cute adorable little flower girl who got tired of people constantly insisting on taking picture. Her hair was in golden curls. It was a fall themed wedding so the flower girl threw leaves instead of petals etc.
I wish to make some notes here as I thought about what my wedding might be like. Of course all of my current opinions are subject to change and when I do get married I will undoubtedly consult my future husband on his opinion on the subject of the wedding but… I think I’ll just write a few things down that I liked and a few things down that I didn’t, and a few things down that I think would be fun.
One thing, they had the photographer take the pictures beforehand and then had the wedding ceremony. That way every one could go straight to the reception. That is kind of nice. Another was that instead of throwing rice and old shoes, everyone blew bubbles. Next the reception was rather short, which I like because I have a feeling that when I get married I’ll want to go off and be alone with my husband. Of course, as I have said, all of this is subject to change.
Another thing, theme weddings seem to be nice. This wedding had the theme of “Fall”. Since my birthday is in the fall I would prefer my wedding to be in the spring. That way my wedding anniversary, birthday, Christmas, and valentines day are all comfortably spread throughout the year. I’m quite certain I want a Fairy Tale wedding. I want to have my wedding gown look like a fairy tale princess would have worn it, and of course I want to look as beautiful if not more beautiful than any fairy tale princess. However that does leave a wide range of styles for me to pick from but I’ll probably pick exactly what my gown will look like later. I doubt, though it would be nice, I’ll make my future husband were a full suit of armor though. Tuxedos are nice and probably more comfortable than suits of shining armor. But who knows. I’ll have to see what he is willing to do… And whether I can get the best man and groomsmen to match…
I also think it would be fun to have a lot of bridesmaids. All, of course, in lovely fairy tale gowns, though not as lovely as mine of course. And maybe two flower girls or more. I suppose the main arrangements will have to depend on whether I know any cute little girls by then. My brothers might actually be married with children by the time I get married but who knows other than God. Sometimes looking ahead is scary, though it is fun sometimes. A LOT of responsibilities come with matrimony, but certain pleasures and niceties come too. I’m especially looking forward to the courting process…
In case you can’t tell, weddings seem to put me into a romantic mood… And apparently I seem to be as fond as ever of the “…”
Anyrate, I am enjoying being sixteen and unentangled with anybody romantically. I hope that last sentance made sense. I am currently somewhat rambling and I think I’m going to put my rambles to good use and go write a story or something. Or at least a plot or two. I’ve had several ideas going around in my head that I would like to use… At some point I want to write a serial epic TV show sort of thing with lots, and lots, of action characters side plots, humor, and etc.
So I think I shall this post now. I wonder if I will write a post on my wedding day… And I also wonder if I will ever have a wedding day… I probably will, even I don’t get married. I mean, I all ready have two wedding dresses bought and I could always put one on and go through the ceremony in my head and get married to nobody… I hope if my future husband ever reads this he will be amused. You know, it might almost be embarrassing for him to know about this website, especially if I write about him a lot once I’ve met him. Maybe then I’ll have to keep an actual unpublished diary or something then. Anyway, I think I actually am going to end this post now.
