No, that is not a typo. Sugar
Bear surprised the hell out of me and asked me to marry him at midnight and 30
seconds on New Year’s Eve. He did an
awesome job with picking out the ring and somehow was able to hide it from me
for a month and completely take me by surprise.
While most of my friends and family were still in shock from the fact
that I am able to commit to someone Baby J’s reaction went something like this:
SB: G and I are getting married.
Baby J: Yeah, well I just really
want a baby brother or sister.
Hold on, child. Not happening
right now. One thing at a time.
Sugar Bear and I have discussed this whole wedding thing months ago and
came to an agreement that we would be jetting off somewhere to get married sans
friends and family (not including S though because obvs I can’t leave the state
without her). Mama and Papa C were
totally fine with this, or so we thought.
Less than 24 hours of being engaged had passed and Sugar Bear and I
were having an exciting night watching TV on the couch. S barges through the front door and tells me
Mama wants to chat with me in the car. Apparently Baby Girl was comfy in her
carseat and Mama didn’t want to get her out.
Mama, me, Baby Girl and S huddled up in the car for her to tell me that
she was thinking that maybe I should have a wedding. She’s afraid she I will regret it if I
don’t. Sugar Bear emerged from the house
and joined us in the truck and I filled him in.
He’s such an awesome guy, he just said “whatever you want.” And let us
continue on.
I gave Mama C. a day to do some research and as of 5pm yesterday she
had decided that planning a wedding was maybe too much stress and work.
We are now back to square one.
Congratulations & Good Luck with whichever option you chose!
ReplyDeleteWeddings are definitely stressful, but I think they pay off. Mine was a blast, a big party pretty much!
But eloping somewhere with little to no one there can be just as amazing, I'm sure!

I think the key is do what you want. Don't worry if you think guests (or parents) will be disappointed. It's for y'all, not anyone else! And, ultimately, if you are happy and enjoy it, they will come around. If not, who cares?
ReplyDeleteCongrats and good luck with the planning, whatever that may entail. :)
Thanks, girls. I honestly don't care either way I just don't want some over the top circus that stresses everyone out.
