And I couldn't be more serious.
It was easily the best day of my life so far.
For now, I want to showcase lyrics to one of the songs I picked for that day. I have loved this song since Kristen bought the Westlife CD at least 10 years ago. When I asked Paul to do an a cappella version of the song, he seemed a little perplexed. It wasn't until a few days before the wedding he texted me to tell me that he got why I picked it.
Jonah was hesitant to let a boy-band song be a part of his wedding, one of the reasons we had Paul re-vamp it a little. I'm so glad we did.
What I really want to say to people when they ask about my day is that I was flying without wings.
So, some pictures, some lyrics, and a longer post about that fantastic day to come in the near future!:)

Flying Without Wings
Westlife
Everybody's looking for that something,
One thing that makes it all complete.
You find it in the strangest places,
Places you never knew it could be.
Some find it in the face of their children,
Some find it in their lovers' eyes.
Who can deny the joy it brings?
When you've found that special thing,
You're flying without wings.
Some find it sharing every morning,
Some in the solitary nights.
You'll find it in the words of others-
A simple line can make you laugh, or cry.
You'll find it in the deepest friendships,
The kind you cherish all your life.
And when you know how much that means,
You've found that special thing-
You're flying without wings.
So,
Impossible as they may seem,
You've got to fight for every dream;
Cause who's to know which one you let go would've made you complete?
Well,
For me,
It's waking up beside you.
To watch the sunrise on your face.
To know that I can say, "I love you."
in any given time or place.
It's little things that only I know,
Those are the things that make you mine.
...And it's like flying without wings,
Cause you're my special thing;
I'm flying without wings.
And you're the place my life begins,
And you'll be where it ends,
I'm flying without wings:
and that's the joy you bring,
I'm flying without wings.
