Posted by Ray8183I was against it too until my OOT guests stated they would take vacation and come to my wedding. I have more people saying they can't believe I am doing it that they will come from all over the world. In my 20s and 30s I said I would never get marry, but this is crazy.

Renay- i love the STD's -very nice. Perfect for your Ray Charles theme.
I was going back and forth with doing them. I think I pretty much decided against it.
Renay,
I cant tell you how happy I am for you & that you found 'the one.' If you dont mind me parting a few bits of wisdom (so to speak):
'To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.'
'The only things that life denies you are the things that you are willing to let pass by. Fight for the things you love, and love the things that are worth fighting for.'
'Life is nothing more than a test, the hardest test that anyone can ever take. There is no studying or knowing the next question. Each question gets harder, but we must pass, we must push to the limit, if even sometimes on faith alone.'
'In marriage we marry a mystery, an other, a counterpart. In a sense the person we marry is a stranger about whom we have a magnificent hunch. The person we choose to marry is someone we love, but his depths, her intimate intricacies - we will come to know only in the long unraveling of time. We know enough about our beloved to know that we love him, to imagine that, as time goes on, we will come to enjoy her even more, become even more of ourselves in her presence. To our knowledge we add our willingness to embark on the journey of getting to know him, of coming to see her, even so wonderfully more.
Swept up by attraction, attention, fantasy, hope, and a certain happy measure of recognition, we agree to come together for the mysterious future, to see where the journey will take us. This companionship on life’s journey is the hallmark of marriage, its natural province, its sweetest and most primal gift.
In promising always, we promise each other time. We promise to exercise our love, to stretch it large enough to embrace the unforeseen realities of the future. We promise to learn to love beyond the level of our instincts and inclinations, to love in foul weather as well as good, In hard times as well as when we are exhilarated by the pleasures of romance.
We change because of these promises. We shape ourselves according to them; we live in their midst and live differently because of them. We feel protected because of them. We try some things and resist trying others because, having promised, we feel secure. Marriage, the bond, makes us free to see, to be, to love. Our souls are protected; our hearts have come home.'
I never thought I would get married either...not that I didnt want to or from lack of trying, but once I got into my mid 30's & had met a wonderful, loving man whose heart had been so badly singed from a prior marriage - I had come to accept the fact that I could be happy living with this man fo the rest of my life w/out marriage, or I could try to chase after something that I knew wasnt going to pale in comparison to this man. So I followed my heart and sure enough the man who said would never marry again asked me for his hand last Christmas and now we are husband & wife. They say fairy tales dont come true - they dont exist...but I beg to differ - because mine came true the moment we both said 'I do.'
Sorry for rambling, guess your post just made me feel sentimental. I am so happy for you & really looking forward to finally meeting you at the next GTG!![]()

We can have a gtg at your new house Gina and help make the OOT bage and favors. It can be a pizza gtg.

It's all coming together but I don't feel 'ready' yet. I'm picking up my favors today, then going to the new house to get the keys. This weekend is going to be spent cleaning the new house and then the next couple of weekends are all wedding-related. I still have at least one more fitting (next one is on Halloween), my mom doesn't have shoes yet, the BM dresses just came in the other day, still haven't figured out my hair, I need to arrange for shuttles to and from the hotel/RH, meeting with music director at the church on Sunday, FH and I still haven't picked songs for the reception, I still have to make OOT gift bags and put together my favors....![]()

Oh yeah and we're still missing like 50 RSVPs!!! So those phone calls have to continue!
It will all work out though and in 38 days I'll be in Hawaii![]()
I love them Renay! I'd go for it!
Those are really cute
Renay- I love them! The colors are so pretty!!
