I am a mother of a little girl who is the light to my darkest days. I am engaged to a man that I met when we were in middle school. He has always been here for me. He seen me at my worst and always picked me up when I fell and he never turned his back on me. After years and years he finally talked me into "jumping of the cliff" and date him. Best decision I have ever made. Now I'm planning my wedding to my best friend. I am so happy I found a man who sees my daughter as his own as well as his family and takes in my flaws as perfection. We are an odd couple we are opposites in personality as well as up bringing. But we know exactly what the other is going to say before it even comes out of our mouths. We are total nerds lol well me mostly lol Harry Potter, GOT, Dinosaurs and Power Rangers.... yeah thats all me lol Hes more Videogames and Xbox One lol with a mix of other stuff. He doesn't really care much about the wedding per say. He just said not all country music and ceremony must be outside and gave me a budget, So I've been on FULL WEDDING MODE. LOL

Happily married 🎉

Would you rather... someone propose at your reception, or give a horrible toast?
Lynnie, on March 21, 2018 at 3:12 PM

You made it all the way to the reception and then things start to go a little off-plan... Would you rather have a proposal happen at your wedding, or suffer through a terrible toast? I'll suffer...
