The Engaged Life: Pt 6

So I feel pretty silly - after posting my last diary on all of my planning being complete for my upcoming wedding I learned some pretty devastating news. Due to financial reasons unknown to my fiancee and I until Saturday, our wedding was cancelled by my parents and our budget was slashed by more than half. Needless to say I'm pretty devastated, worried about my parents (my dad had a mild stroke over this) and their situation as well as now being faced with having to plan a whole new wedding in less than three months. It's hard to spend the last year of your life planning something only to have it all fall apart as soon as you had it all figured out. It has really shown Brandon and I how much we love and care about each other tho and how we really do want to get married - dream wedding or no. I had even suggested the courthouse route and was thrilled to see Carrie and Big did the same exact thing! I guess it will take a few days for us to get over it and get back to the drawing board on all this...

OH!

Of course the first thing to be taken care of is your dad! I hope he recovers quickly... You know... I had a big wedding ... with a lot of people I didn't even KNOW in attendance. It was filled with our parents friends, clients, etc... I remember trying to walk through people, trying to get to my new husband, but I kept getting stopped. I was thinking, "if I wasn't wearing this dress no one would even notice me..." It WAS a great day... but not because of the food or flowers... it was great because we were so excited to be together. I think that in the long run you will find that this is an enduring story to tell your children and grandchildren... (I hope this helps!)

So sorry to hear about your

So sorry to hear about your dad-hope he recovers fast! And I really am glad you and your fiance are able to see the true meaning behind a wedding, being in love and being together. While we all can't have our "dream" wedding for one reason or another, I think that whatever kind of wedding you do have always ends up perfect. Pick yourself back up and don't let anything get in the way of becoming Mrs. Brandon. After all, like Carrie and Big say, it's just the two of you. Good luck!
