Less than a week... :)

 

 

It has all led to this..

that was the reflection…

as I dug through years and years of old photos…

searching and pulling out memorable moments and photos…

for her to put into our slide show….

to showcase our journey… our past and our present..

and a glimpse into our future…

for in less than a week…

we’ll be standing in front of our family and friends…

to exchange vows that we are both feverishly editing and practicing…

and, if all goes according to plan..

we’ll exchange rings...

and maybe even seal the deal with a kiss. :)

And I just. Can’t. Wait. ;)

Apart from my birth, this is perhaps the single most important moment of my life.

For along it comes rebirth. Of me, of us, of both of our families.

A new me, to be emerged from the ashes of my past.

All my past hopes and dreams, my successes, my failures.

All those days as a teenager, longing to find someone. Those fantasies of past crushes, as a young budding teenage boy, imaging married life.

All those high school nights seeing my friends with their partners, hoping I had the same affection in my life one day. 

All those nights that I though this would simply never happened. That I wouldn't find the girl of my dreams that would make me compelled to take this step, this commitment.

Until you came along.

And you stuck with me.

My life has forever changed. Since that faithful day when I swiped right on my phone…

Through long distance, through FaceTime movie nights and bedtime tuck-in’s, through COVID, through both of our numerous visits and many wandering moments travelling abroad..

It all led to this.

I can’t wait for our big day, our big moments.

Our big beginning…

Thank you for being with me. Thank you for being yourself. Thank you for being brave enough for us to take this next step.

Can’t wait to marry you. :)
