Someone opened the double doors and I strolled down the aisle, vaguely thinking "Oh, there's Gareth", but mostly "Woohoo! I can walk in these shoes!". I half-listened to the Reverend as she said a prayer and some words about love and two lives coming together, blah blah blah. amman But as soon amman as she started the vows, pow! I was finally in the moment. We didn't know beforehand how the vows would be phrased, but they turned out to be simple and eloquent. Gareth was holding my hands, amman absently brushing his thumbs back and forth like he always does. That gesture always makes me feel so calm and reassured, this time it was electric. Until that moment this whole Vegas thing had just felt like some really elaborate vacation. But now we looked at each other with this mixture of nerves and warmth and tenderness and Holy Fucking Shit Batman, We're Getting Married! "Now repeat after me," said the Minister. 'Gar-ethhh, I love you.'" "GARETH!" I corrected, "I love you!" And I'd never meant it so much as right then.
