Happy Anniversary punkin'

Three years ago on December 5th, my future husband and I headed to city hall to get our marriage license.  It took a total of only 4 minutes and we walked out with our license.  It was the beginning of something very special, that concluded in one of the most magical weddings and experiences I could have ever imagined.  Standing next to the man I love more than anything in this world and surrounded by our wonderful family and friends.


We started our journey 11 years ago. It was a complicated relationship in the beginning.  But the love we felt almost immediately has notlessened at all.  It was one of those love at first sight situations, where we didn't want it to end and we both knew there was no going back.  

I'm a very lucky man.

We used to talk about marriage some over the years, saying that it wasn't for us.  I honestly think that the political atmosphere and it not being legal, dampened our hopes, because when the state of California passed marriage equality, we decided that it was something we wanted to do.  Only a few months after our marriage, did the law of the land change and it was legal everywhere and would be legal back home in Texas.  

We were lucky enough to be given a Disneyland Fairy Tale Wedding at the place we love the most.  It's a weekend that I will never forget.  After months of meetings, phone calls and paperwork, our weekend finally came.  We were again lucky enough to be surrounded by so many family members and friends.  Around 80 people total, which is quite a lot for a destination wedding.  

I think getting to go to Disneyland probably helped. 

We had the best Disney Wedding planning team that made the entire experience leading up the wedding seamless.  The day of the wedding went so smooth, you really didn't have to do anything but show up at the right time.  Our photographer and videographer were the best.  They both captured our day perfectly. 

I always worry about my memory and losing the details of that amazing weekend.  I'm always going through photographs and watching our video over and over, so I don't lose anything.  Ever year that passes, I want to make sure that I'm not forgetting a thing.  

I relive the day as much as I can.

Happy Anniversary punkin'.
