Newly Wed, not Dead

Hello all! I haven't written on here in a long time so I bet nobody even comes to this site to read any more. That's ok though, cause I enjoy just getting my thoughts out of my head and this is a good way of doing it. I am now a married lady :) The wedding was so much fun. We didn't realize how quirky it was until after it was done. From B walking down the aisle to the pink panther theme song, then having the slide show after the bridesmaids walked down, but before I walked down (and I'm so glad we did it that way because my sister made me cry just before she turned to walk down the aisle.) When my dad and I got down to the end of the aisle and we waited for the song to end, right after he gave me away we took a self-photo with his camera(the picture turned out great! I'll have to post it on here sometime). Instead of having a unity candle or sand we had a box with a bottle of wine and two glasses and we each put a love letter into it and sealed the box by nailing it shut, for it to be opened on every anniversary with a new letter and bottle of wine to replace it for the following year. So romantic! Our ring bearer, my nephew, carried our rings in on a penguin from club penguin, the rings were on the penguins arms. Just before we had our first kiss we did our secret handshake that we've been doing since our second date. And after we signed the registry Brenton pressed the Easy Button, you know the one from Staples. We also had a group photo with everyone that was present at the ceremony, such an awesome idea and I can't wait to see the pictures! Our officiant is the chaplain of the BC Lions football team and he sported a "Go Lions Go" cheer on the back of his jacket (He missed a game for us, which is a big deal and we are so grateful!) It was just an all over really fun time and I hope everyone who was there enjoyed themselves. I have only given you a little bit of the picture for the ceremony, maybe next time I'll tell you about the tea and then the reception.

Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote on here, I guess I'll chalk it up to being a newly wed =) Until next time
Michelle
