Dream wedding
Shadows here!
There are 2 ways I could have a wedding and be content with it.
1) My husband and I discreetly go to a courthouse with a witness or 2, probably his family or something, I'm not 100% how it works. We dress nice but not over the top fancy. Maybe him in nice jeans and a button down with his hair combed just the way we like it. We say our vows and sign the papers and I'll take his last name, unless he doesn't want me to, then he can take mine or we can hyphenate ours together or something. Then we go out to our favorite restuarant and celebrate our marriage alone and talk about whether we want to wait before we do a honeymoon or not or even if we have a honeymoon. Then a few weeks to a month later we have a party where we celebrate our marriage with some family and friends but nothing fancy and big. Like a small barbecue.
OR
2) My husband and I get married in the Fall/early spring (Like February 28th) outside and we have a "legit" wedding where we have guests. We'd dress simple but elegant and maybe one or 2 bridesmaids and all but he'd have a say in it too (obviously). We'll invite our families and do a Celtic tradition called handfasting, I don't have the vows anymore but I can find them again. My dad might walk me down the aisle or maybe I'd walk alone, I think I'd walk alone. And I'd want to have it set up so I can get a picture of my husband's reaction when he sees me as well as all the guests'. For the party, there would be no alchol, not even fake alchol and we'd have pizza because pizza is fricking delicious (and I'm sure my future husband would think so ;)) and why the hell not, I'm on this earth for a good time! Then I'd dance with him and I'd so hope that the first song we dance to is our song and that the song that I walk down the aisle to is May I by Trading Yesterday or Beautiful in White by Shane Filan (I think that's the name of the artist) But I don't know. And our wedding cake will be chocolate (sorry baby, if you think that's a bad idea) and I will bake the cake because I love to bake. And then we'll play the cupid shuffle and all will be swell and then I will spend the rest of my life with the man I love.
Both are rather simple ideas, at least in my opinion.
