I have now spent just a week short of an entire year planning this event - from the flowers, the colors, the dress, the flavor of cake, and more. But I hope that on the day of the wedding not a single one of those things really matters to me. I hope my grandma can be there. I hope she can see me wear the veil her daughter wore. I hope her and I can have a piece of cake together. And I would love to have those moments captured in a photo to have forever. I hope that when I look back on my memories and the photos, I am drawn to laugh. Or to cry. Or to do both, while smiling. I know the details will come together, and I hope they set a wonderful backdrop for moments with the people I love.
