Miller Time: Our Last Dance

Yesterday was our ten month wedding anniversary. I can't believe how quickly time has gone by since saying " I do." This first year of marriage has been so sweet and everyday I am glad to be married.

But, there is also a bit of a sadness in saying goodbye to being Just Married. And, I'm embarrassingly sad to say that I've come to the end of our wedding day recaps. But, just like every good story, every wedding day also ends. And seeing as how my wedding day ended more than ten months ago, I think its time for me to write this final post.

We got all dressed up, took our pictures (here, here), we said our vows, food was eaten, the cake was cut, and we danced the night away. And before I knew it, the DJ was playing our last song.

I wish I had pictures to show you, so that you could see how magical the last moments were. But, I don't. Our photographer was long gone by then. But, I don't think the pictures would do it justice anyways. Because the magic was not in the aesthetics. It was in the connection between me and Neill.

Neill and I danced together, gripping each other tight. Everything else melted away. We looked into each others eyes and sang to each other

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
 

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
 

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
 

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
 

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me
 

I cannot live, I can't breathe
unless you do this with me

And we just knew. We knew we had gotten the wedding of our dreams. We knew that all the hard work we put into our relationship had given us a strong foundation to start out marriage. We knew that we were in it together, one hundred percent. We knew how lucky we were to be there, at that very moment, together and happy and madly in love. We knew that the future was waiting for us.

Here I am

And here we go

 Life's waiting to begin.

Thanks so much for letting me share my wedding day with you! It has been so fun to look back on our wedding and I'm even thinking of getting a book made of all of my wedding day posts (read them all here). I know I wouldn't have even thought write this all down if not for you guys, so I'm really grateful to have this blog as an outlet.

Did you and your sweetie share a last dance? What was your last song? What do you remember about the final moments of your wedding reception?
