Flashback Friday! My Big Fat Southern/Italian Wedding! (Anniversary)

Welcome to a very special edition of Flashback Friday!  Here's a photo of my hubby and me on our wedding day: September 5, 1987…..28 years ago! OMG – look how young we both look!  The awesome man behind me is THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY, my Grandfather and the light of my life. When my Father was out working three jobs, this man stepped in, swooped me up and TAUGHT me how to shop!! We had the best times together and as you can see by the photo, he had a hard time giving me up to Hubby that day. Lol! 


 


 Our wedding was held at the church I grew up in, Saint Theresa's. Our reception was at the Army War College. I don't really remember eating, but I do remember that I felt as if I was floating on air the whole day. It was kind of funny at times, half of the people were from the South (Hubby's side) and had thick Southern accents and the other half of the people were Italian (my side, duh) and also had thick accents ... Everyone had trouble understanding each other, BUT everyone had a BLAST……love truly is the universal language!!{#emotions_dlg.wub} 


Here is my handsome dad walking me down the aisle:



And for a really far-back throwback photo, I included my mom and dad’s wedding day photo too.  Just looking at it gets me all teary.  They looked amazing! 



Do you remember every minute of your wedding day or did it fly by in a blur?  I would love to hear your true love stories!  Tell me everything!!!!!
