I knew this day would come, I really didn't think through what it meant until recently.
I have images of my little girl wearing only a diaper, pushing the lawnmower.
Now, hand over my little girl to me.
The man she loves, the more important, the man who loves her more than anything else.
I have no concerns that you love will be everlasting.
I'm sure of this, so it makes this day so much more joyful for me.
Brandon, the moment your hand fell into mine, I knew my world had changed.
He pushed my boundaries and my buttons.
I could think of a million different lives that could be perfect or thrilling,
but I can't think of one of those that I'd like to live if it meant living without you.
Brittany, my treasure, the girl I nervously asked out for a sweet team.
After one day, I was infatuated with you and I wanted to pursue that.
Your beauty, your quickie smile, your big green eyes and dancing in public brought so much light into my life.
I just wanted to love.
To catch my breath, to believe this is real.
Now I'm marrying my true love, heart's desire and my truest friend.
You're my answered prayer, my lifeline, my sincerest friend and my best decision.
I am completely made and unmade by you.
I promise to laugh with you, love with you, listen to you and live life to the fullest with no hesitation.
And I promise to cherish each day more than the last and to face any obstacles at first.
And finally, with an open heart, pure spirit and true amazement, I take care of my life.
These are the hands that will passionately love you and cherish you, cherish you through the years.
And with a slightest touch will comfort you like no other.
These are the hands that will tenderly hold your children.
Lastly, these are the hands that, even when wrinkled and aged, will still be reaching for yours,
still giving you the same unspoken tenderness with just a touch.
Brandon, I was made to love you.
Silly, wildly, illogically, fervently and steadfast.
I was made to challenge you and embarrass you and make you blush.
And I've not lived to love you until the day that my son decides not to rise.
You've already given me so much and it's going to take a lifetime to repay you.
So that's exactly what I'm going to do, to give you a lifetime.
Those whom God has joined together, let no one separate.
Brandon, you may kiss your bride.
One more.
I get you, Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
