When Two Become One: The Fulce Story

 

On Monday September 11, 2017, two souls became one, and that which was written in the stars became that which the eyes could see, and what the heart could feel.  

 My eyes are leaking just looking at this picture of my cousins. Nothing can truly prepare you for the sight of your best friend walking down the aisle with your favorite uncle while the waves crash against the beach. I knew she was going to be a beautiful bride, but nothing prepared me for the full effect. Everything was perfect, the weather, the waves, the seagulls flying overhead...nothing could have made this even better.

 

As they walked down the winding path to the cove, all I could see was her happiness just flowing out of her. My uncle was holding onto her arm so tightly I didn't think he'd let her go but he did. He looked so proud of his baby girl, his firstborn. *sobs in a ball on the bed* It was the perfect moment because Jr was cheesing as if he knew he'd won the lotto. All the groomsmen were staring like -mouths open- shocked lol but the bridesmaids were tearing up.

 

It was such a special moment and to be invited to share that moment was truly priceless. There was so much love shared the entire weekend. Bonds were formed, stronger bonds were created, and love was cemented for eternity. I think what truly had me choked up was when Chan said her vows, she was crying. Even though Jr had that big goofy grin on his face, I know he was feeling what she was feeling too. Everyone in the audience was crying and dabbing their eyes it was hard to not feel the love flowing through the cove.

 

 

Being a part of such a special journey left its mark on me. It makes me so happy to see my baby cousin glow like this. Jr is a special person and he truly loves her.

 

 

However, enough of that sappy stuff, the reception was lit. Jr's friends from the Bend were utterly hilarious. The singles table was popping lol I had so much fun on my mini-momcation. My uncle D played the guitar for Chan before they had their father/daughter dance (yes I cried *shrug*) and it was so beautiful. Jr and his mom did a Dominican dance for their mother/son dance and it was popping.  

Ultimately, one of my most fave moments of the reception was when the DJ played Cardi B's "Bodak Yellow"; all the bridesmaids surrounded Chan on the dance floor and hyped her up. It was the perfect way to end the night. Like that was one of our turn up songs on the drive up and it was so fitting to close our night out with it as well.

 

 

Final Thoughts: Enjoy these pics instead of words <3

 

 

Super  Final Thoughts:

Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.
