we have dreamed about the perfect wedding in the perfect dress ever since we saw the first wedding in life….
Not knowing the meaning of the word WEDDING, we played “THE BIG WEDDING” with our favourite dolls and teddy bears, when we started growing up we still used to play with Barbie and ken….
Later when we started realizing little by little what it meant, we started loving the dream more and dreamt of every detail even more….
Today is your dream day, the favourite day u waited for so long is finally here…
Today you will walk down the aisle with HIM to share the rest of your life together…
you will change your name today, your father will be giving you away…
and u will be building your own home from today…
things will change and will never be the same as it used to be but only better…
in one corner of your heart u will miss ur life u had for the past 24 years…, memories will cherish our favourite & funniest moments in life which we spent as best friends together…..
epilogue
I said we dreamed of the perfect day with the perfect man... but boom.. it is one hell right out there... not the marriage, but everything u have to do to make the BIG DAY perfect...
Lots of running up and down, specially IF the lift is broken... or u have this notion that it might break down on your best friend's wedding and u will be trapped inside... (not that I'm always crazy but that lift was very antique: so couldn’t take the risk)
Non stop photography and making sure u SMILE to each one of it, wearing a skin tight saree jacket which u cant breath in… and the list goes on… but at the end of the day, I look at my friend who is very happy and glowing.. and I realized maybe its worth it… worth the effort to make that dream come true… it was self fulfilling even for all of us who were close with the couple watching them say “I do”….
Later that day I got to think about love, marriage and relationships. True I don’t have much experience to talk about it: but I’ve seen many go steady, fall apart, building back and so forth. Some u just know when u see it, that “its meant to be” and most of the time with yourself and your closest friends your GUT feeling or notion becomes just correct. Like to the two who just got married. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you find someone to love the U, you love, well, that's just fabulous.
“Maybe mistakes are what make our fate... without them what would shape our lives? Maybe if we had never veered off course we wouldn't fall in love, have babies, or be who we are. After all, things change, so does everything, people come into your life and they go. But it's comforting to know that the ones you love are always in your heart... and if you're very lucky, just a phone call away”
