I honestly didn't get nervous until it seemed all things were going to fall apart an hour and 30 minutes before the ceremony. I got there and took some pics before it happened.
Then the beginning happened. Our mothers lit the unity candles, the bridesmaids came down followed by the flower girl and ring bearer. Then the beautiful bride (escorted by horse and carriage) began walking down the aisle.
I can't explain to anyone how it feels to watch the woman walk down the aisle to you. You're worried, excited, scared, and anxious all at once. It wasn't a hard choice to marry Letha, it was just hard to believe it was actually happening (heck, I still can't believe it happened). I messed up during the exchange of rings (I thought I put her ring on her wrong hand, we were miked up and everyone heard my worry), I just smiled and chuckled with the rest of the crowd.
Letha and I took some pics afterwards around the ceremony site. Then came one of my greatest moments ever. I asked Letha (right after we got engaged) if we could walk in using the Superman music, she agreed. What she didn't know was I had planned something fun for everyone in attendance. I had gone to the "bathroom." I put my Superman shirt on underneath my tux. With my tux shirt unbuttoned I stopped after entering and pulled open my shirt to show off MY logo. I will put a picture up as soon as I have one.
We then had a great time at the reception with everyone. The food was good and the cake looked amazing.
After that we all got to hang out at Lee and Laura's house for a little after party. It was a very long day, but one of the best of my life.
