I'm getting married!

I caught the "bouquet"! And have newlyweds Ida and Andrew to strangle for this. They planned it! Evil couple! Haha.

Theirs was a wedding to remember. Really. First time I cried in a wedding ceremony. I had to fight the tears as I dared not ruin my eye make-up. But I failed. Tears were welling in my eyes. Then again, I would have cried just the same if I wasn't able to attend their wedding. I love this couple! I sincerely believe they are truly for each other.

Part of their chosen wedding vow was the "love is kind, love does not envy... when I was a child, I spoke like a child" Corinthians reading from the Bible. And yes, it was my first time to cry as well for a Bible reading that I normally don't cry for.

The ceremony was intimate, sacred and solemn, not a circus and attended only by their closest friends and relatives. The reception was light and the food was good. Everything was heavenly. It was truly a celebration of a union made in heaven.

Every now and then I would catch sight of Andrew kissing my cousin Ida on her temples as he held her close. Awww... There's truly something about a guy kissing his girl on the temples. It's so sweet, so sincere. :)

And for the "bouquet" part  -  technically it wasn't a bouquet. It was a penguin, two stuffed penguins, one for each set of bridesmaids and bridegrooms to be passed around until the music stops in a game held instead of the usual bouquet/garter toss. And for the last two weddings where I almost caught the bouquet, this third time around, the penguin landed in my hands. So yes, dear friends, like a sign validating a prophecy of getting married sooner than I would expect courtesy of a P300/session psychic in the recent Psychic Festival in Eastwood, up on my leg was a wedding garter.

"Told ya, you're next. Everybody's been telling you," said my cousin.
