Pre-Wedding Notes

TysWife2Be

I have seen some wedding pics/videos where each couple writes a letter/note to one another and they get them and read them prior to the ceremony.

I am all for it...

And you ladies???

For those married, DID you do this?

We did.  Or, at least I did.  I gave him a card along with his gift.  When he read the card he remembered he wanted to do the same but couldn't come up with anything so quickly.  So he did this:

It said, "Will you marry me? Yes, no, maybe.  Love Wes"  I checked maybe

We did and I think it's a very special touch. Makes for cute photos too. I had a card already; my fantastic wedding coordinator had pretty stationary for the groom in case he forgot to get something on his own. You're so excited and nervous and it's really nice to read a love note leading up to the first look or walk down the aisle.

We did too! I sent him the not you see...and he sent me the card and the gift. It was the cutest things inside!

We didn't do it because my DH doesn't like to write his emotions out.  I wish we did though!

<div>I'm sure this is the reason I got the note I did from DH!</div>

Our officiant uses something like this as part of the ceremony, which was awesome, because my H hates to write down his feelings, too. But because it was something he "had" to do with someone holding him accountable, he stepped up and wrote a BEAUTIFUL love letter.

Our officiant had us write love letters to each other, in secret, and mail them to her. She read them both at the ceremony. It was really nice, and so many people commented on how it made the ceremony so personal. She read mine first, and I started crying the second she started it, and it onlly got worse when she read H's!

Anwyays, I'm really glad we have those letters.

I sent one to DH, but didn't receive one from him until the next day, which I think was even BETTER since he wrote it as my husband!

We're going to do it, but we'll exchange them after the wedding, when we get back to the hotel room. I wanted to do something like that privately, rather than write my own vows, which just seems way too personal to me.
