That sounds really pretty. That's another reason I was hoping for a December wedding, Christmas lights! Maybe some will be up somewhere come January 11.
Yeah, i was married right out of college. I went to school in the South and that's just what you do. If you're dating someone when you graduate, you marry them. So, i didn't really think about it. We were poorly suited for each other. Stuck it out nearly five years.
Actually met FI while I was still married. He was dating a girl I knew, but I didn't meet him through her, I met him through a different mutal friend of ours. We were at the same events a few times. He even met my Ex-H once, but I never once hung out with him and his then-girlfriend. Then I was re-introduced to him some time after I was divorced and he asked me out that very night. (Even though in the shoes I was wearing I was seven inches taller than him!)

I got married Jan 6th, but I think the lights stay up for a while after that around here. They weren't christmas colored so it worked. Example:

I'm about 5'6" or 5'7"- FI's an inch or an inch and a half shorter. I'm a WASP and FI is Italian, so I'm average height for my people and he's average height for his!
...I just like really high heels. Luckily FI doesn't care if I tower over him like a baby giraffe.

I had that happen too, Any, with these really pretty white gloves that my mom gave me to wear outside. They were perfect and I completely forgot them in the hotel room. I didn't even really need them, but I have no reason for fancy white gloves now, lol. I figure someday I'll have to go to a nice event in the winter and maybe wear them then.
