There's a story here.....

You see.....my sister-n-law attempted to create a bussell for my wedding dress!! However, the outer layer of chiffon was slightly longer that the underneath layer. She had attempted to tack the material but it just didn't hold. So most of the night my dress was not up, it trailed behind much of the night...only a disturbance during my dancing attempts!!!

Well, this particular picture has quite the story that even carried over into our honeymoon!! As my new husband is turning me during this shot notice my train on the ground behind me!! After an entire night of avoiding my dress and not even turning me during our first dance for fear of messing up the dress...he decided to turn me!!

And as I come around....imagine his rubber sole shoe, stepping on my chiffon layer, on top of a tile floor....AND BAM!!! Just like that the groom was down!!! In fact the singer even said "Look, the bride has swept the groom off his feet!!" It was funny but I was so afraid he was going to be hurt....but amazingly he wasn't (at that moment)!!

After a few days and we were getting ready for our honeymoon, I noticed this Texas-sized, purple-black bruise on his hip and tush!! It looked painful but I never heard any complaints!!! So onto the honeymoon....during our first session of the "Couples Massage" (Absolutely Amazing)....JC's masseuse noticed this hard to miss love mark and said, "Is that a tatoo?"

We both started laughing and then told the story as we laughed again!!!

I love these memories and I never knew Shelley had captured the calm moment just before the crash!!
