November the 9th 2009 Bristol Registry Office.
When people ask me how long I have been married I am tempted to reply forever but not meaning it in a nasty way of course. I mean that it feels like Stuart and I have been together forever and that we are literally at times one person, two hearts one soul. This was my princess dress, I looked for ages to find one and they where either too fluffy, too plain,or just made me look like a toilet roll doll from the seventies lol. A frirend suggested I try this one on and I was like oh ok I might as well I've tried on everything else....and that was it I knew then and there it was THE ONE! In the end I had to take it to a seamstress before the wedding as I put on weight and it was taken out and it just fitted me then. Mind you it meant wearing only a pair of pants and some nipple covers under it to be perfect lol. It weighed an absolute tonne, I had a 5ft catherdral train on the back, something I had always wanted but never had before.
You see Stuart is hubby number 4, yeah yeah I know bring on teh old she loves wedding cake joke rofl. The first two where disasters from the start to be honest but I was marrying for the wrong reason in the end because I was a coward and couldnt say no. No 3 was genuinely love and we where together over six years married before it ended rather nastily to say the least.
My darling Stuart was there for me all through no3's up and downs as a friend, he lived miles and miles away but we spoke regularily sharing our problems, laughing at crappy jokes and arguing about issues to do with the job we shared at the time. It was a fun, natural and easy going friendship that got extremely close and we had total trust in one another.
When no3 went kaboom he was there as a shoulder to cry on, a friend to comfort me and listen to me. He stayed as neutral as he could but was honest when he thought I was being used or taken for a ride. It was only when someone suggested that we where more than friends we both got over defensive and then had to re think the way we felt. As we where so close I just came out and said it, yeah actually I do like you a lot but I dont know where we go from here. I didn't want to hurt him in anyway or become involved with him on a rebound so we literally taked and talked and talked things through and decided to give it a go. He came to Bristol over a few months to visit and in the end moved in and got work, he helped me start the divorce papers and the day they came in we booked our wedding.
He was fantastic, he got me beautiful trio engagement ring in silver and proposed to me on the bench at which he was sat the first time we met face to face in Bristol..it was beautiful til I saw all the passers by clapping and smiling. Oh my I was so embarressed but happy all at the same time.
We worked hard on the wedding preparations and it was all done and ready way before time. We even had a back up plan for if things went wrong anywhere but they didnt and the day was amazing. He looked fantastic in his kilt, my bonny scottsman I was so proud of him. I felt like a princess, my mum was all emotional and dad got to give me away this time as they have now bought that in as a choice. It was over so fast I was still in awe and flooded with emotions of love and happiness.
The intimate group of people we had attend then all went to our favourite restaurant and we ate food, had drinks, cut the cake and laughed until it hurt at times. Cameras where going off all over the place and I have never ever been happier. To see my friends and family all together laughing, joking, talking and just totally relaxed. So unlike those hideous formal after wedding traditional meals where no one wants to talk and is dead serious. OUR day was about fun and laughter.
Stuart I love you for who you are, even your snoring lol....thank you for making me your wife..always yours me xxxxxxxx
