✨ The Marriage ✨
It's my wedding anniversary today, and so ensues the mush. The wedding day really is only the beginning, it's the marriage when it all reaaaally gets going.
I once read (instagrammed) that you love your husband / wife, the LEAST on your wedding day and that your love in marriage should grow from there. And sure enough, today as we exchanged cards we had written...
⭐ "I love you more than ever"
⭐ "It just keeps getting better and better"
Now, it might not be new or trendy or win me any super-edgy-cool kudos... But here's the thing, I'm a wedding celebrant and I believe in marriage. Your wedding day is just the beginning of the great love, honour, devotion and cherishing of each other that you will share from there on out. And I actually do think that IS pretty blooming cool.
Without a doubt it takes effort, to be kind, to be united, to share your time and energy, to champion each other, to listen, to appreciate and to give. Life also gets crappy and throws a load of new stuff into the mix. But, move through it. Together. And it can bring you closer.
Jon and I may have only been married a handful of years but hopefully with many more to go... and i'm sure it won't be the only year i'm being a pile of mushy peas. So I'm sorry (not sorry) if this makes you cringe, but I do, after all, celebrate love for a living. Why not celebrate my own.
p.s if you've made it this far I hope you've enjoyed reading to the soundtrack of our first dance together.
