My Naughty Little Secret

“Shit, Dad, don’t make me cry, I’ll ruin my make-up. Margot’ll kill me if she has to start over.”
“A toast to the beautiful bride, Michael is a lucky man.”
“And I’m a lucky woman,” I added. “A toast to my fantastic family and my wonderful husband-to-be.”
We drank our champagne; a quarter of a glass was all I would allow myself as I wanted to be able to have a small glass later too. With my husband. Jesus, that was a funny thought. My husband. Feck!
I exercised the bride’s privilege and took five minutes to calm myself. As I approached, I saw Michael was standing waiting for me at the altar, looking uptight. I didn’t want the traditional wedding march; I chose to walk in to “Music of the Night” from Phantom of the Opera, a tribute to our first date. Luckily the vicar was extremely flexible about the music. Michael hadn’t known my plan and when he heard the music start, I could see a smile spread across his face. He turned and saw me and held out his hand as I approached.
“I was afraid you’d change your mind again. You look so beautiful, I wish I could capture this moment forever.”
“Don’t worry, the photographer will,” I teased. “You look really handsome.”
And he did, dressed in tux; he had let his hair grow a little, and the curls sat softly on his head. His smile was relaxed and happy. There was no sign of the tension I noticed from the door. All that was written on his beautiful face at that moment in time was love. We exchanged our vows, which we had kept basic and traditional.
“I promise to love, honour, and respect you all the days of our lives.”
We signed the register and that was it. We were Mr and Mrs Henrii with a lifetime of hopes and dreams ahead of us.
