My FH and I are getting married on 12/12/12, for some obvious reasons and some not-so-obvious ones.
Obvious: Look at that date. It's pretty darn cool.
Not-so-Ob: It's the 5-year anniversary of a car accident that I was involved in. The collision was catastrophic- I was in the hospital for months and my boyfriend (at the time, who was a close friend of my FH's) was killed along with the other driver who hit us. I was in a coma for 19 days and in and out of the hospital for almost 7 months.
Most people don't understand why my FH and I have picked this date, but it's because we'd like to acknowlege two things. One being a dear friend who passed away, and two being the accident that brought my FH and I together when he stood by my side during my recovery. I like my date. I don't want to change it.
That all being said, I'm a little worried my reception might get gloomy because of the signifigance of the day.
what can I do to keep the mood of my reception light? It is a celebration, after all.
And what kind of homage, if any, would you incorperate to remember our friend?
I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this..Oh look, it's a blog!
