I'm Getting Married in the Morning

Like really, I am.

The center pieces are set up.

Nails painted.

Dress ready.

Bridesmaids sleeping over. 

Mind a little swimmy from wine and giggles and nail painting

So here's to tonight. 

The last night this bed will be my own. 

The last night I will sleep alone.

Here's to being single and so young for a few more hours.

Because tomorrow, my whole life will change, but I know it will be for the better.

Here's to the man who loves my love handles.

Who thinks I look cute when I wear my glasses.

Who kisses me on my nose and calls me his cuddly koala.

Here's to a lifetime of love, of fights, of joys, of sorrows, of memories, of journeys.

Here's to not caring that I have five different shades of "eggplant purple" at the reception. 

That the church doesn't have any flower arrangements in the front. 

That the bar tab is not unlimited.

Here's to celebrating what tomorrow is really about: that I get to marry the best man I have ever come to know.

Here's to bawling my eye's out as I walk down the aisle and during our first dance like I KNOW I will.

Here's to runny mascara and the little zit on my forehead and those 15 pounds I never lost.

Here's to saying I do and making a vow. To keeping that vow my whole life.

Here's to you, Shawn. To the love I have for you and the love you have for me.  

Here's to creating our story.  Creating our lives. Creating us.

Here's to getting married in the morning <3
