It still feels surreal even though it's been about a month now. I'm so so happy and still can't seem to wrap my head around the fact that in a year or so, I'm going to be married to my fiance, my best friend!
So many feelings and emotions have swept over my mind from day 1. How will we plan for a wedding? How will be pay for it? What do we even do first?! I'm proud to say that I waited two weeks before I thought about planning. One sweet friend once told me, "Just enjoy your engagement!" So that's what I intend to do! Two weeks may sound a little weak, but it's still a long time! ;)
My biggest concern is not perfection. Jeffrey and I learned very quickly that standards of perfection will easily lead to disappointment as well as a blurred vision of the very purpose for marriage. It's our deepest desire to center all that we do around Christ and so my prayer is that even in our planning, we'd still be able to honor God in it.
I'm thankful for friends who have continually expressed and shared in such a time of celebration with us. It's crazy to me, y'all... but all through God's grace that we're here.
So! Let the wedding planning begin!
