Married!

So I've been married 3 weeks and I've just gotten around to writing the "I'm Married!" post.  But...I'm married!  :)

Marriage does not feel any different than being in love and unmarried with Brian.  It just means a little more bling for the both of us.  But there is something comforting and nice in knowing that we got to express what we mean to each other to our friends and family. 

I loved every single moment of my wedding day once the ceremony music started.  I ate, I drank, I danced, I laughed and laughed, I cried, I felt a LOT.  It honestly went by in the blink of an eye and at the end of the night, I couldn't feel my fourth toe on my right foot from all the dancing I did in my heels.  (By the way, feeling didn't come back for 3 days - it was pretty scary yet amazing to have a constant physical reminder of all the fun I had).

I have some minor regrets about the day - not getting a photo of just me and my brothers, not having a chance to try the hor d'eouvres, not making sure more people knew about the photobooth, and being so rushed setting things up that photos were extremely rushed.  If I could redo one decision, it would have been to hire a Day-Of-Coordinator.  Hands down, I would have hired one knowing what I know now.  But c'est la vie.  I'm mulling over starting a side project of being a coordinator since I love weddings so much but let's just relive my wedding for now.

I married my lovie.  My oh-so-wonderful lovie who quote Mr. Darcy to me during our vows.  My lovie who so patiently practiced his ballroom dancing skills.  The one who makes me feel so blessed every night and every morning.  The one who surprised me during our wedding weekend by dancing with abandon.  The one who loves me the same way.

Walking down the aisle was a blur of just overwhelming emotion.  I remember locking eyes with Brian and just focusing on him.  No nerves, no fears, just confidence that I was walking to the love of my life.
