A few months ago, I received an email from friends of mine inviting me to dinner to celebrate their 10th anniversary as couple. I accepted right away.
Fast forward to last night. I got there and was their 3rd guest. Everyone seemed a little overdressed. I asked myself ... was I underdressed in my black dress and pearls??? Later, we, the guests, realised that they actually got married very quietly that morning and surprise.. surprise... the dinner was THE wedding dinner. I have to admit that I was speechless. I didn't think that they will ever do it.
Though I've never ever met anyone more suited to each other and more willing to work to keep things going than them, I always thought that, they were, for all intents and purposes, already married! There was no need for to actually get legally married. Being the traditional girl that I was, I've accepted that many years ago. That was how great I found their commitment to each other then. To finally sign on the dotted line was epic. I was speechless. It was just too awesome for words.
