This post is too true. My husband had a broken collarbone and was in a brace during our wedding--it certainly made for funnier stories and made every other little imperfection seem like no big deal at all!

I ADORE this! Such a great find, and such a great attitude!

'Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering.
There is a crack in everything,
That's how the light gets in.'
Leonard Cohen

Was he talking about weddings do you think?!

Well said. 'Perfect' is lacking in something, soul perhaps. Imperfect is perfect to me.

Indeed Lucy, Indeed. And Guilty Secret, it's so sad to think that it's all downhill from a big party, no?

But wait! Do I spy a blind, Irish pirate reading my blog? I do, I do! Hooray! I love pirates. (and thanks).

This is a great post, I think it's the imperfections that make things perfect :)

I wholeheartedly agree. Also, if you are still immature enough to think that you deserve to be "princess" for a day, you are too immature to get married.

Did I think my wedding day was perfect? Yes. Did things go wrong? Yes, but I still thought it was perfect because I was marrying my husband in front of all my family and friends.

I am a new reader of your blog, and spent about an hour reading through old entries -- how wonderful it is to see a bride to be finally hit the nail on the head when it comes to the important things concerning weddings, marriage and wedding planning!

What a great post.

I have already got Baddie's gift for our wedding day - it is a very battered copy of Sandol Stoddard and Jacqueline Chwast - and I have already decided what I am going to write in it.

It includes this: may this absolutely not be the happiest day of our lives.

I remember meeting with our minister she asked how we envisioned our "perfect day" and I flat out told her it won't be perfect something will go wrong and that will make it entertaining.

I'm kinda hoping that it'll mostly be one of the kids doing something cute but as long as I am married in the end I'll be happy. No reason to stress and worry about something beyond your control.

2008-07-09T05:51:12.386-07:00

I think the only "perfect" thing about my wedding was that I was perfectly sure about my choice of husband!

That seems like the right sort of thing to try and be perfect about.
