Eternity

Sixteen

"Are you ready?" Dad asks me as he is going to walk me down the aisle to my husband, thanks to dad's connections we were able to fly my friends from Seattle Grace Mercy West here and they are in a hotel. John and I are having a wedding, a traditional wedding even though we are already legally married.

We are in Thailand, this is an outdoor wedding and we decided to get married at sunset. I'm in this short white beaded romper with a removable skirt. See I'm wearing a dress for the ceremony but for the reception it'll be a strapless romper. For shoes I'm wearing simple white heels, nothing too blitzy since the wedding dress does enough of that. My hair is pulled into a simple fishtail braided bun with a family heirloom, this sapphire, diamond silver hair comb that grandma Swan was given to by her mother. Mom gave it to me the day I married John in the courthouse and I'm wearing it again today. My veil is this long white simple veil with some glittery purple eyeshadow and light purple lipstick, and why purple you may ask? Why not red or something like that? Because I'm not traditional at times, I want a pop of color to my attire that shows that I'm not so innocent. Sure I've got lavender flowers in my bouquet but the white tulips trumps the lavenders. Sure my favorite flower isn't tulip but I'm going with tulips today.
