Hi folks!



Yesterday evening, we (me and my girl) started the search for a date and place for our wedding (which will take part next year).

At first sight, i wasn't excited at all about that search; you know, calling numerous places, making appointments, visiting the place, interrogating the owners, coming home, new call, new place, and so on for a couple of weeks untill we finally make the decision to do the wedding in that place and on that date.
Although i'm aware of it that the preparations only start by fixing the date and place, then we have to organize the *festivities* (ceremony-cars, music, invitings, church, ...)

And although my girl was really excited about it, i didnt share that feeling completely (of course i LOVE to marry her, lol, but i didnt like all that preparation-stuff), but now ...

.... after our first visit, yesterday evening, i started to gain that feeling too, we immediatly made preparations for the next two visits (tomorrow), and next week, and the week afterwards.... and i liked it! Even looking forward to it!

In otherwords, i'm getting married next year, and i like it (what a relief), i look forward to fix the exact date so that we can organize the rest of the wedding. And i'm looking forward to say to my friends: "yep, i'm getting married on THAT day", cos now it's still all very vague.

And i think i will do a lot of thinking the next months. I mean, i proposed to her a 2 weeks ago, but that was all pretty automatically, i had plans for that already since last year (i even mentionned it here), and so it was pretty normal, but afterwards i started to think about it, it's a pretty big step, not that i had doubts, but i never thought about it as being "a big step"; i found it all pretty normal: we were engaged, i would propose to her, and then we get married, and live the rest of our lifes together ... big deal!

But it's only after i proposed to her that i realized the impact of my proposal, and now i'm sure, i'm going for it! (or rather... i'm going for her!)

Anyway, sorry, to bother you with all this, but i felt like this this morning, and wanted to share my feelings.
