"God I'm making a fool out of myself." I think.

"Let us begin." The ordained man said. My grandpa sat down next to my grandma, mom and dad. He keeps talking but I don't really know what he's saying. I just keep looking at him, my family, his family, the guys behind him.

"Would like to say anything?" He asks me.

"Uh, sure." I say. "So, I know we are just meeting. But I have a good feeling about this. I feel like I've seen you somewhere but I can't put my finger on it." He laughs nervously. I see my cousin Grier laughing hysterically. I give her a look. "I can't wait to get to know you and I'm ready to start making new memories with you and sharing my life with you." I nod to the ordained man.

"Would you like to say anything?" He asks him.

"Yeah. Well, hi. It's nice to meet you. I am excited to do this. I remember in the car I was thinking 'oh gosh, what if she doesn't like me when she sees me' and I had a million thoughts running through my head. But now that we are here, and seeing you. I know I am ready for this. And like you said I can't wait to get to know you." He says taking my hands in his.

I smile wide and I hear an 'awww' come from Marylinn and Grace. He talks a bit more and we repeat him. It all happens in a blur.

Then he says, "Do you, Daniel Seavey, take this bride to be your lawfully wedded wife until death do you part?" My jaw drops.

"I AM MARRYING DANIEL FRIKEN SEAVEY?!" I think to myself. My eyes go wide. I look at Grier now knowing why she was laughing.

She looks at me and mouths. "You got this. Breathe."

I take a deep breath as he says "I do."

"Do you, Alyssa Avery, take this groom to be your lawfully wedded husband until death do you part?" He asks me.

"I do." I say.
