my awesome wedding

Most girls wait their entire life for their wedding. They have the dress picked out they want. They have the color theme. Who their bridesmaids and maid of honor will be. They have the seating picked out. They have the flavor cake they want. The honeymoon location. They even have the ring picked out they want. All they wait for is the guy to ask them to marry them. It's all very rigid and predictable and not at all romantic.

THIS IS NOT ME!

My wedding is going to be so different! First of all I don't want a diamond engagement ring/wedding ring. I hate diamonds and I hate “girly” rings, I think they are ugly and very cookie cutter and not unique. Instead, I want a tattoo on my wedding finger. Not of his name, but of a pretty ring. One that is permanent. One that will never come off. Because my love with my husband will be forever and having a permanent ring won't jinx me or my love like some people say. Here's what I would do, we would both get the tattoo separately then when it's time to put the rings on each others fingers during the ceremony we would take off the rings that would be concealing our tattoos and that would be the first time that we would see the others tattoo ring. So it would still be special and a surprise to each of us.

I don't want a huge wedding. Instead I want to either go to Las Vegas and have a wedding/honeymoon all in one OR go to the justice of the peace and sign the papers then go somewhere great for our honeymoon. We wouldn't wear some dumb ugly dress and suit, instead we would wear what each of us wanted. Even if it's jeans and a t-shirt that would be just fine. Because in the end it's not about the dress, it's about the love inside your heart.

I want my wedding to be intimate, because this is a very intimate moment between a man and woman. So I don't want a bunch of eyes watching such an intimate moment between me and my husband. I don't want people throwing rice at me. I don't want the typical cut the cake and twist your arms together and drink the champagne and I don't want the awkward first dance. It's all just dumb to me. It would be so much more romantic to just have a quiet, intimate ceremony just the two of us.

Our wedding would only last the length of a song. But not just any song, it would be our song. The song that means something to us both, whatever song that will turn out to be. I don't want a big long drawn out ceremony with lots of traditional crap, the length of a song should be perfect for vows and that magical first kiss as husband and wife....well we may need another song for the kiss because I want out first kiss as husband and wife to be AMAZING, not just a little peck.

Immediately following the ceremony we will go back to the hotel or our house (depending on where we actually get married at, Vegas or home) and make love as husband and wife. I won't want to waste one second longer than we have to to consummate our beautiful undying love for each other. Because in his arms is where I will belong. And in my arms is where he will belong. And by immediately showing our love for one another seals in our vows and our love for eternity. Because our love will be for eternity.

I don't see the point in wasting thousands of dollars on basically a dumb party when I could spend that money on either a honeymoon or a house or something for the two of us like a new bed or something. I can't wait for my wedding because it will be something special and unique that only the two of us will experience together.
