He's With Me

PDA...The dreaded acronym. I'm afraid it's ruined our view of what being in love is supposed to look like. We hold back, hold hands, hold off til' we're alone.

I think it's time to have an intervention.

Couples read carefully...if you love each other...show it! Not the yucky, gropey kind...but the unconditional, gaze in his eyes, hold him close kind. On your wedding day it can be hard to avoid the groomsmen getting toasted and the caterers being late but on this day take lots'a time to love each other.

Be yourselves. Be your loving, happy, thrilled, and giddy selves. Pictures aren't for poses...they're for gaining memories that are unexpectedly and wonderfully charming.

I'll Cleave to You

This video was one of the first ever posted on Southern Bells. And every time I've watched it since, I hold back the urge to boo-hoo.

The vows are the killer. The girl is precious and her groom seems to absolutely adore her. Grab a hanky and join me friends. This one's good!

Vows:

Man:  I give you my life this day in the presence of God and according to His will. I leave my father and mother and I'll cleave to you.

I will love you as Christ loves the church, giving my life to yours. I will lead and protect you, as we share our life with God, who gave us one another.

Wife: According to the will of God and my desire, I give myself to you. To be your wife and your friend and to stand by you as we share our life together. Leaving my father and mother, I now commit myself to you.

I love you and believe in your from this day forward.

Now I will be the first to admit that this song is o.v.e.r. p.l.a.y.e.d. but you've got to check out this video! I sure do wish I was a guest at this wedding! So fun!

I stumbled upon this pre-wedding/wedding video and smiled through the whole dang thing! I'm tellin' you...this couple has got 'it.'

Her smile is so beautiful and his love for her is so evident. I love the idea to email out a video a day before the wedding, thanking the guest and sharing in the excitement! Ask for all guest's email addresses when collecting mailing addresses and shoot them a video surprise 24 hours before your big day! How personal and perfect, right?

So go ahead...check out the video below and fall in love as I have.

Ah...romance.
