Wedding dress shadow box1/26/2024 It reminds me that even if everything is falling apart, God is in control, and it’s all going to work out… somehow. It’s a reminder of one of the craziest days of my life. I’m not sure what it means if there’s a hurricane.Īnd so this isn’t just my wedding dress. It’s supposed to be good luck if it rains on your wedding. Nothing fancy, but we were officially married and finally alone. We spent our honeymoon in North Carolina at the family cabin. We had spent all our money buying that little house. The whole ordeal was so stressful, I was never so glad to leave town, as I was the next day when we left for our honeymoon. Well the wedding did take place, there was a makeshift reception following the ceremony in the hallway of the church. Oh wait, we had high water!! (Not a good sign.) I knew she would make it happen, come hell or high water. I told my mom we were leaving on our honeymoon, whether we were married or not. The paper was full of stories about cancelled wedding plans for that weekend. We were still waiting on a word about whether the wedding would take place. The work kept my mind off my wedding which was rapidly falling apart. I remember my hands were covered with blisters at my rehearsal dinner that night. So the day before my wedding I spent the day hauling tree limbs out of our new yard. It was covered with massive tree limbs that had fallen from the trees. We filled it with folding tables and chairs.īut before the wedding, we had a massive clean up of our new yard. So… the rehearsal dinner was hled out our little house. That meant it had the power back one, almost immediately. Our little house was on the same circuit as a big hospital. It was basically empty, since no one was living in it, and we had no money to buy furniture. CH and I had just bought our own little house a few weeks before. The rehearsal dinner was to take place at my mother-in-law’s house. My parent’s house and my in-law’s house had no electricity. My out-of-town guests had hotel rooms with no water. The day before the wedding the church said they had no power, and they weren’t sure if the wedding could take place. Two days before our wedding a massive hurricane came straight for Houston. So if the dress reminds you of hers, that’s no coincidence. I got married a little bit after Princess Diana got married. It may not be an antique, but it certainly is vintage. Well then I thought, why not display mine as well? I’ve talked before about how I love to display my mother-in-law’s wedding dress.
