After the outdoor ceremony, where impromptu acapella karaoke is performed and fireflies are caught and palmed by well-behaved children wearing all natural fibers, and your groom kisses you and announces that he loves your perfume and your best friend chimes in with "Oh, she never wears perfume, that's just her. She just emits that scent. Biochemistry!". And after the reception, where one by one, quietly, with supreme respect and honor for your new union, each of your exes approaches you and either verbally tells you, or else in the form of song lyrics or letters or collages, how sad he is that he isn't the one who gets to spend the rest of his life with you.
After all of that, someone gets tired of Paul McCartney's dedication and serenade and puts '4-EVA' by Trick Daddy on, using her iPod which is hooked up to someone's vegetable-oil burning Benz's sound system and you get drunk enough you spill malt liquor down the front of your perfect dress, but it doesn't matter.
It's that lovely.
I am in love with this dress..J Crew has been astounding me lately!

Amanda, for sure! Dream twins.
Erica, yes, the lovely JCrew. Farnes, they do. And their shoes, for the past few seasons, have been RIDICULOUS.
Thank you RRW!

I think that we had the same dream here. You forgot the overflowing glasses of champagne and the pleasently drunk yet not overly plastered smiling people nodding slightly as you danced with your new husband.
