And it made me realize that some little things about the wedding just are not worth the stress the important thing is that we will be married at the end of the day.

It made me realize when we were at the hospital last night and he was apologizing because he was afraid somehow this would ruin the wedding. The car is totaled so we have to go out and buy a new car, and he is afraid because it is a lease that they will not pay off the whole thing. It made me realize that I do not care if we get married in a courthouse with jeans on, I am just so happy he is here and we can get married period.

Girls just remember with all the hussel and bussel of the wedding, in the end we will be married and that is all that is important. I know I got to caught up in the whole wedding day sometimes, and the relationship got ignored a little. And the rest of our lives are more important than one little day.

OMG. Thank God he is ok. Don't worry about the car and money... who cares about the money.

FH has to fly a lot for business and I think of this often. This morning before the car picked him up I held onto him a little bit longer

So glad he will be ok and it is sad that it takes something bad to remind us sometimes what our weddings are all about, but at least now you wont forget this feeling.

God bless you both! I'm glad the lesson was learned AND he's alright. I was just thinking of that this a.m. again - as long as we're all ok and healthy, all will be fine. Thanks for sharing.

oh honey I am so sorry, I feel for you... believe me I know what you are going through... we had a really bad car accident exactly one year ago... I have bad back problems since then... but I just keep telling myself that it could have been worse, to look at the bright side of things... hang in there

I'm so sorry! That's horrible! Your right a car and a wedding are small in the grand scheme of things! Thank God he's alright, that's all that matters!
