EDRG 3344 T/R My Precious as Gold memory

Hello Everyone Happy Friday!

The memory I would like to share is my precious as gold memory, which was my wedding day which was also my nephew's 7th birthday which we were so blessed about as well.

I woke up on a beautiful Saturday morning with rollers in my hair from the night before, and I remember feeling excited and nervous at the same time. My mom helped me with my wedding dress and makeup, and I can still remember how tight my hair felt pinned up, but it had to hold up for my big day, I had tons of hairspray and bobby pins to keep it up. As I was finishing getting dressed I remember calling my husband at that time he was of course my fiancé and he sounded so calm and he made me feel calm after speaking with him.

Our photographer came to take pictures of us at home and as we were leaving. Till this day I am so grateful we hired a photographer for our wedding. To go back and see pictures from that day are so awesome, and they are a blessing.

A white limo picked us up and dropped us off at the church. As I walked in I went into the bridal room to pamper myself up again and my mother, and my maid of honor were there to keep me calm. As they left I remember waiting there to get ready to go to the entrance of the church doors and I took a moment to thank God for this day, and for my husband, and I said a prayer.

Finally the church coordinator gave me the okay to start walking towards her, and as I approached her the water works started to come down, I was so happy and when my special day was about to begin this was the day I waited for my entire life and I had the perfect man waiting for me at the alter. My ushers opened the door and then the music started. Our song came on from Brian McKnight “Love of my Life” and that was the song I walked down the aisle too. It was the perfect song. As I walked down the aisle I remember looking at my husband and he did have watery eyes as well. It was a special moment that I will never forget. I also remember smiling at all my guests that came to the church ceremony and feeling so grateful they were there to share this moment with my husband and I. My dad gave me away and I was so happy to be up there with my husband and our pastor, who gave a beautiful ceremony. After the precious vows were said and our wedding bands were blessed, we had a slide show played for our guests. The slide show showed pictures of my husband and I as children and then when we met to current. When the show was done there wasn’t a dry eye in the crowd.

One moment I will never forget is when our pastor was having us repeat our wedding vows and when it was time for our “I Do’s” when it was my husband’s turn he said “I Do” too soon, and our guests started laughing, it was so funny, we were ready to get married and we were ready to be together for the rest of our lives.

My wedding was one of my precious gold memories, being blessed with my husband and be able to spend the rest of my life with him, is so amazing, and I thank God for our marriage everyday. I know I will continue to have precious as gold memories in the future and I pray my husband and I can experience those together on our journey.

Thank you for taking the time to read one of my most precious as gold memory.
