Weddings always make me cry. I have multiple reasons now though.
One: I feel like I have a very mature view of marriage now. When I was younger I gave in to all the negativity about it; ball & chain, lockdown, shotgun wedding...and I never understood its beauty. The commitment to God that's made and the covering He provides for a successful union. The peace it brings in companionship and partnership.
Two: I didn't realize that I wanted a traditional ceremony until I didn't have one. Watching them makes me wish I had done it a little more traditional, where I would have invited friends, not just family, had bridesmaids, videotaped the ceremony, had a sit down reception afterwards, and danced the night away. I know there's always anniversaries :)
Three: it reminds me of how good it felt to be in a good place of love with the hubby. It was a rough road getting there and I didn't think I wanted to. But I am pleased to have a marriage to work on and to invest in for me and my childrens future.
