There are big moments that make our memories construct footings in our internal timelines. We’ll say “remember the day we got married?” and in most cases, we remember how we felt — anxious, eager, scared and certain, lightness and love (maybe even sunburnt and windblown).
We might remember the things we said. We’ll have a better chance of remembering if we wrote them down.
We’ll remember the things we saw for the first time. Our partner dressed like that. Our parents. Our pup. The tide. Your suit. My son. We’ll remember these for awhile before the memories fade as the details give way to the larger moment’s memory.
We got married.
What will you remember?
There’s a lot that can be said for these moments, but there’s a lot that doesn’t need to be said. There’s a lot that will be forgotten.
But these moments below… these extra little splices of life have been captured to last a lifetime. And more. And for that, I am grateful.
Wishing you the best that life has to offer, Mr. + Mrs. Gunderson.
