\nNow that I’m about to enter my third year as a wife, I can tell you that married life has been nothing short of great. I always tell my husband that I can’t ever imagine not being married to him. Of course we know there’s still a great deal of learning to do but the wonderful thing is we can do it side by side. And like all happily-together couples say, a marriage is something you really, really<\/i> have to work at continuously. Some people may make fun of him but Dr. Phil’s advice is nothing to laugh at:
\n
\n*insert Letterman’s Dr. Phil theme*<\/span>
\n“Wake up each morning and say, ‘What can I do today to advance the ball? Even small things will accumulate over time and make a difference.”<\/i><\/a>
\n
\nAnd to my dearest Arn, I will never get tired of being married to you. Here’s to a happy forever. (:<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
\nWhen we were still planning, the best advice we got was “The wedding will only last for a day. Focus on the marriage, it should<\/i> last a lifetime.”
\n
\nIf you’re a bride-to-be though, it’s very tempting to start obsessing about the teeniest detail – say, the beadwork on the straps of your shoes? – that it’s easy to lose sight of what the big day is really about. Believe me, I know. It was only when my Arn said that he’ll marry me no matter what sort of plant life I’ll be holding or what color our aisle runner is (I made sure it was blue<\/a> so it would go with our theme by the way) that I knew it was enough that I was marrying someone I had waited for all my life. From then on, I learned to let go of the small stuff… well ok, some of them. The morning of our wedding, I woke up not worrying if every topiary is in place but looking forward to the beginning of the rest of my life. My make-up artist Marie<\/a>, the first to arrive in my hotel room, told me “you look sooo refreshed!” soon as I opened the door which, I think, was the best compliment anyone who had just gotten out of bed can receive.
\n
\nPlease allow me to indulge but our wedding certainly turned out the way we wanted it to. What more can we ask for? Family, friends, and food – lots of it – were all around us as we began the journey of a lifetime. And because we want to share our joy with you, I compiled a buffet of the entries I made leading to the big day along with pictures and information about the key players who helped make it happen<\/a>. Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
