Wedding After thoughts

The wedding is finally done and over. Blessed.

The bridal car (Mercedes S series 350) is awesome.
The gowns were big (bigger than I thought actually) and simply gorgeous.
The nails earned many praises (even after the day)
The make-up and hairdo were pretty.
The march-ins were touching, meaningful and romantic.
The dance was safe and presentable.
All special elements - instant prints, concert tickets, montages, were smooth and added personal touch to the wedding.
Every father, mother, son, daughter enjoyed.
Financially, managed and satisfied.
And the list goes on.

I actually can't ask for more. Everything I ever wanted, I was given and more. Thank God.

The Big Day - I think it's over rated. I wish I realized this earlier, to save myself all the panic and anxiety, (perhaps some bucks too). M still thankful that i finally figured that out on the last week before the day that letting go doesn't mean going wrong.

Alright, sidetracked. Coming back to "over rated", yes, one year's effort and tens thousands of money for one day?! It's not difficult to figure out the insanity of it. Worth it? Guess it's subjective. Myself, I realize the answer changes at different phases. Before the day, of cos it' ll worth all effort and money to make that day special and different. After that day, not really the case.

Think this " over rated" came from the biz related to the big day - bridal shops, photography, videography, pre wedding options (MTV, courtship cinematography, comic, photography, etc), invitation cards, wedding favors, florists, etc etc etc. They tell you "it's once in a lifetime" hence, the importance and fuel the desire to push for perfection.

And among all these running around to prepare the grand day, sm may miss out the real wonderful thing of it is finding that someone. I'm glad I din. I'm truly grateful and know I'm very lucky to find my One.

Nevertheless, the day had come and passed. Good or bad, no one is going to remember for long. For life moves on. But I'm glad, despite the stress, fights and everything, I still enjoyd the day.

And of everything I learnt about myself and from this experience, the most impt one is that "those who matter wun mind and those who mind reali dun matter".
