To you Mr. McCann,
I cannot believe our day is finally here. On this amazing day, where I finally get to be your wife, I want to take us down memory lane for a bit.
When you first came into my home, it was different. The sza sza szu, the zing, that “feeling”. In my experience the “zing” was a feeling of familiarity. When you first walked in after my little cousin Andrea slammed the door in your face for our first date, I felt like you had walked through my door a million times, locked eyes with me a million times, held my hand and gave me a sweet kiss since forever. I felt like in a million life times, in a million different universes, we’d been doing this thing called life together.
When we first met, I did not want a relationship. I had come out of another one months ago and was determined to enjoy life on my own and live it for myself. I had just moved into a cute condo in Dallas and everything was about Val and what I wanted, I had just started my full time career, was building a business, gotten a motorcycle, traveling with my friends and having a blast being alone. I guess what they say is true, as soon as you stop wanting something is when you get it because I sure didn’t want a relationship and then and I got you (lol). You were so unexpected but such a breath of fresh air, a man who means what he says, never breaks a promise, is fiercely loyal, brave and honest, you really did grab me by surprise Dylan, and I thank God every day for it. Even when you think I can’t stand you, I still think about the blessing you are in my life.
As I mentioned, I wasn’t really wanting a relationship, as a matter of fact when you first asked me to be your girlfriend I said no. We still continued dating and getting to know each other, but I definitely had my walls up as you well know, and there you went, you probably didn’t even know but you knocked them down one by one without even having to try. You make me feel so safe, loved, the true joy of companionship I found with you. Whatever worry I have, whatever anxiety I am feeling, even when I had a long day at work, you always find a way to make it feel like the tiniest thing. I didn’t have a choice to fall in love you, it was my destiny to be your wife. I couldn’t have asked God for a better partner to accompany me.
You are my rock, you hold me strong, you make me laugh or crack a smile when I don’t even think I can make it another day. I know that no matter what this crazy life throws my way, as long as I have you, My Harley, Stevie nicks music, my reality TV and last but not least God himself I will make it through. Today is the day that we vow to each other infront of our friends, family and God himself to be one together, a team. I promise to do that. I promise to never give up and call it quits because things get hard, I promise to be by your side and pick you up when you’re down,I promise to hold your hand through whatever this crazy life throws our way, I promise to always be your riding partner, I promise to be your #1 cheerleader on race nights, But most of all I promise to be your best friend. This will be one of the most difficult things we do, but as long as we have each other, the effort will always be worth it. Even though it may be tough, the honor of getting to be by yourside will always be worth it.
“No measure of time with you will be long enough, but we’ll start with forever”
I love you with all that I am Mr. McCann, I am so privileged and honored to be yours until the end.
Love, your soon to be in a couple minutes…wife.
