Do you have a dream wedding? I dare say that every little girl has one, don't you? I do. I used to imagine having mine either in a garden or by the seaside. It definately must be held outdoor. I'd like it to be attended by all my family and friends, it's gonna be like a big gathering of some sort, with lots of happy laughters, nicely dressed women and groomed men, nice food and just perfect ambience - light breeze and warm sunshine. I want it to be decorated with lots of roses preferably white and pink ones, but the more colourful it is the better, as long as it is not too overwhelming of course. The aisle must be a spread of rose petals. Walking down the aisle with a classy yet modern gown with minimum frills and a bouquet of white lilies and the bird of paradise flowers to the song "From this Moment On" by Shania Twain played by a live band...these are all I dreamt of once upon a time.
I woke up from this dream after watching 'Love Concierge' a MediaCorp (Singapore) production. I realised that a perfect wedding no matter how lovely it going to be won't be complete or meaningful if the person you're to say 'I Do' and give your life to does not love you for who you are. To find someone and finally be together with the person you truly love and be able to stand hand in hand before the marriage registrar/priest is the best seal to a perfect wedding. It'll be perfect even if it just invovled a few close family members and friends, who come with their true blessings of happiness. You'll find this in couples who have surpassed the many challenges they'd faced, and when they say 'I Do', you'll be able to see the sparkle in their smiles, the glitter of their eyes and the glow in their faces. And it'll be touching till the well wishers can feel the power of their love for one another and be blessed with their love.
Lavish weddings are too superficial. Why bother to spend so much on a one day ceremony but not able to spend the most important things in your life with the person you truly love and cherish? Oh yes, money can buy one lots of things but never trade your life most precious with it.
Undeniably, all of us girls, want the dream wedding that we have properly planned out but most important, we too, want to be married to a guy that will give us true happiness and a blessed life journey together, don't we?
If you have found that special someone in your life that you can't live without, cherish them and tell them how important they are to you always. Don't wait, time waits for no man.
