Yes its my bigday and I am super excited, I had woken up three hours earlier but guess what I have nothing in my mind to worry about. Just a little bit of nervousness. Today I will walk down the aisle as a bride but alone. Call me weird but I want no one, no entourage, no train not even a lil bride. Daddy take me by the hand and lead me to the man of my dreams. I want his eyes fixed on me, with no distractions as I walk towards him, our eyes and smiles communicating uninterruptedly, I want all eyes on me and me alone.
Thanks my darling friends but can you cheer me from the pew and take snap shots of me as I walk down the aisle to the altar by myself. Thank me later because I have taken away the burden brides & grooms place on their train in recent times.
Call me weird but I want no aso ebi, I want you smartly dressed in your contemporary clothes, and colours that I have picked. Keep your natives and traditional attire for the traditional marriage or for another of our friends wedding.
Call me weird but I want my friends and family to sit and enjoy the party without running around, let my wedding planners/event managers work for what they are being paid for.
Call me weird but I wont give you a souvenir except you get me a gift, no offense. I am the bride and this is what I want for my big day, it will give me less things to worry about and of course less stress. By the way, you have no reason not to get me a gift: you are not buying aso ebi, you are not purchasing the bridal-train attire, you are not working for me,....etc so convert your energy and your money to a gift..*wink*
Now you see the weird bride has become the Happy bride.*broad smile*
If this is what makes me weird, then I am sure I wont be the last weird bride you'll see.
