Two years ago today…

…Terry and I got married:

wedding

(Yes, that’s the same Forth Rail Bridge we visited this weekend. What can I say, clearly we have a thing about bridges…)

As with my birthday, and other anniversaries, the evidence of the passing of time always freaks me out a little.  The wedding was such a great day, and I seriously can’t believe it’s been two years already. How time flies. And never again will I walk through the streets of South Queensferry dressed like a Princess…

Well, I mean, I probably won’t. You never really know with me, though, do you?

(Yes, those are Terry’s shoes in his hands.  Handy hint there for anyone thinking of getting married: BREAK IN YOUR SHOES BEFORE THE WEDDING. I certainly did.)

Today Terry will be celebrating by visiting the hospital, where he’ll have blood taken as part of his regularly scheduled “Let’s make sure the kidney is still working” tests. That’s just to stop us getting too smug/complacent, you know? After that, we’ll be going here for dinner, and will raise a glass to the past two happy years, and cross our fingers that there’ll be many more to come.  Naturally, I have a new dress to wear for the occasion. This time, though, it’s definitely not by Vera Wang…

  • Happy anniversary!

    I must admit to having sneaky-peeked at your wedding photos before (good ol' flickr, aid to stalkers and bloggers everywhere) and think you look utterly beautiful in all of them. Would I be right in thinking you couldn't stop beaming all day? – You look so sublimely happy! Love the gold accents – perfect for your colouring – and the fine-looking accessory just completes the whole look… (the one carrying his shoes, I mean :P)

    Congrats to both of you 😀

    Well there’s nothing I can say that hasn’t already been mentioned, so I’ll just say congratulations to both of you!
    Now I can’t help wondering if any *surprises* (I mean nice ones) changed hands…

  • *sigh* Such a very very prettiful dress. I loved my wedding day 16 years ago, and even though I'm now divorced I occasionally hint to my partner that we should get married. I suspect it's more to do with wanting to feel like a princess again than it is any desire for lifelong commitment. That's not wrong is it??
