It was a beautiful wedding. The brides, the food, the scenery, the wind, the smiles, the love. It all worked. It was the most phenomenal wedding I've ever been to. I watched a beautiful couple supported by those around them, proclaim their love. It was truly one of the most incredible things I have ever been lucky enough to witness.
I think back at the wedding, only two days past, and I still tear up. I think of the raw emotion that was expressed by the guests, the brides, and myself. The feeling throughout the attendants was extreme, I've never been surrounded by so much love and support. I smiled and cried nearly the whole time. I cried for the love, their lives, the beauty, and for one of my best friends, who was finally so happy.
She and I had a kind of relationship that was a romantic friendship. In a way I'll always look at her differently, that she occupied a different part of my heart. We always knew we loved each other in our hearts, as very close friends. It was discussed many times. We filled a space for a moment in time for one another. I watched in the wings as she married the love of her life. It was beautiful.
My emotions played out far more than I ever realized they might. I am so happy for my friend, her partner, their son. Once again my cynical side has been blanketed by beauty. I, too, am happy.
