Happy Anniversary!! This put such a smile on my face!! I, too, had a *very* budget July wedding. It wasn’t cheap cute like this, though; it was cheap crazy. 😂 (Like, having to argue with the florist a couple hours before the wedding to give us the flowers we’d paid for! And when we showed her our receipt, she went, “Oh yeahhhh!!” 🤪) It was also pre-digital photography, and we hired a friend (sort of—friend, that is) who did not take great pics. *sigh* But here we are, and this year will be 27. I like to think we did something right!!

Joy, oh my goodness, your wedding sounds crazy!!! Congrats on 27 years! Maybe a chaotic wedding day makes for a successful marriage. 😂 It at least makes us more flexible!

Very true! And also, I think it shows we didn’t just get married to have a wedding, right? That sounds simple, but I’ve definitely seen marriages that were allllll about the wedding, and they fell apart pretty quickly.

Hahahah this is delightful, Sledge! I love it! Congrats on your anniversary! We were engaged and married within three months, got married on in-law’s farm. We forgot to arrange someone to take me and the bridesmaids to the wedding, so my Mum had to come back from the wedding and get us! On the only road into town, there were two trucks parked on either side of the road having a chat to each other. I was 45 minutes late for our wedding 😆😆😆

This made me laugh! What an endearing testimony to the start of your marriage, and I'm sure the ups and downs of the last 13 years. :) Happy birthday to your marriage! ;) Hope it's a lovely day and an even better new year!
