Wedding song - second time around.

I am participating in Mama Kat's Writers Workshop.  A fun exercise in trying to work through my bloggers block.... So the prompt is... write about your wedding song....

Our wedding song was “From this Moment On” by Shania Twain.  Why? Because that was the most romantic song our piano player/singer knew.  I had to go read the lyrics after the song was decided upon.  Not the way I normally handle things that will forever be a memory, but hey if that’s the song the guy had confidence in, I’ll go with it.  Lucky for us, the lyrics were loving.  But when the song comes on the radio, I do have to think for a minute, “Wait, that’s our wedding song, I think, right?”

Although the song wasn’t my wedding day highlight it was the most beautiful evening ceremony and elegant dinner party for 35.  Planning a wedding the second time around is much different than a first wedding.  Mostly because the World’s Greatest Husband and I were funding it and it only included our very best, closest peeps.  We weren’t only creating a union of husband and wife we were merging families.  Our five children made a circle around us holding hands while we said our vows (which we wrote ourselves.)  There wasn’t a dry eye in the place as my husband declared his love for me.  Seriously, my husband said it so perfectly, so lovingly, and the best part?  He meant it.  I felt it.  The super best, best, best part? I still feel it, everyday.

There is one line in the song that rings true in my heart -  You’re the reason I believe in love.

hmmm - I wonder what the wedding song was when I married, Mr. past not so good?....I forgot.
