10 Happy Thoughts A Groom Has When His Bride Is Walking Down The Aisle

by Sejal Parikh · July 17, 2015

Amidst the blurry of events which almost potentially ruined your D-day – from the photographer getting late, to the number of chairs falling short, to the site coordinator behaving like a total a** is ONE thing that makes all those faux pas count for naught – your lovely bride walking down the aisle.

For years you had been quite the commitment-phobe, your ‘exit’ alarms set off in overdrive whenever a girl you were seeing even hinted at the possibility of ‘more!’ And yet, you have trudged and prowled through all the swathes of confusion, endured your share of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ relationships, risen above the filthy triviality of adding notches to your belt, and made it to the altar – with a partner you can love and trust and who loves and trusts you in return.

And while those thoughts swirl about your mind while you wait for your bride to walk down the aisle, you could swear there are a million more that are creating a crisscross patterns in some sort of modern art form across the canvas of your brain. No – they aren’t second thoughts nor qualms about what lay ahead, but a fine blend of eager anticipation and an unparalleled gratefulness for the love you are blessed with.
