The Real Work Begins

The dress was  a lot to manage when Jenn was on the beach. By the end of the day the bottom was dirty but the dress had been well worn and enjoyed by the bride. I could see throughout the day as Jenn walked throughout the resort and restaurant, dressed as a beautiful bride, she and her attire got a lot of attention from admiring eyes.

I think that's the way it's supposed to be. The bride and groom's clothes tell others of their intentions to marry, and once married, of their commitment to one another. It's like they are wearing their love on their sleeves so to speak.

When I marry a couple I pray they remember every day, the love they feel for each other this day. It's easy to get caught up in life's little meaningless disagreements and forget that two personalities are melding together and there needs to be a lot of room for compromise. Each person has to hold on to who they are in a way that works for both of them. To lose who you are in a marriage is to lose your dreams. Couples may think that the wedding preparation is a lot of hard work. Hold on to your hats! The real work has just begun.
