Just the TWO of Us

                                         (Side note I downloaded your wedding song while you were dancing dope choice for a first dance. Check out the Video below : ))


This past weekend I had to pleasure of attending (a good friend of mine) a beautiful union between DeShawn and Tracy. I went upstairs before the wedding to pray with Tracy (God puts it on my heart to do these things that I would never just do on my own, he knows I need a little push) She looked beautiful, a little jittery, but very excited. I hugged her and told her everything was going to be alright. I went downstairs to join my husband in the sanctuary. (Which btw was beautifully decorated and packed.) DeShawn looked genuinely happy and read to marry the woman he loves. You could just see how much he loves her by the way he was watching her sashay down the aisle towards him. That was great to see. People always notice how excited the Bride is, he was equally ecstatic. Watching someone you love marry the person they love and seeing the love between them, it's a beautiful thing.

We enjoyed ourselves very much. I believe the thing that stuck out to me the most were the speeches/toasts given at the reception. While the speeches were going on Brandon whispered to me, "They're being ministered to right now and they don't even know it ." Be each others Who? What? Why? When? and How? DeShawn was told by Tracy's sisters that they're her family, but he now comes before them. Remember at the end of the day it's just you two. One of the groomsmen gave a fantastic toast as well. He explained how both Tracy and DeShawn both have a blueprint on how a marriage is suppose to work. (Their parents) Everyone at the wedding, we're just added support and around to be encouraging, but it's just the two of them in THEIR marriage. Surround yourselves with loving, supportive all around good people.

If you want a successful marriage you surround yourselves with other happily married folks. We have to support and uplift each other. What is true is that in a marriage it's you, your spouse and God. That's it. Not your mama, daddy, sister, brother or friends. You cannot share everything and you cannot let everyone into your marriage. I like that it was reiterated by almost everyone who gave a speech. In marriage your spouse becomes your family and is first, their needs come before EVERYBODY else. I keep saying this because I believe some family members like to test this part of marriage. Some family members like to put you in awkward positions with your spouse and there are even some who try to challenge your spouse coming before everything and everyone.

I'm just saying all this to say your spouse should be the first person you want to share things with, always communicate what's going on with each other. Tracy, I am proud of the women that you're becoming and so very happy for you; DeShawn I have only had the pleasure of meeting you a couple of times, but I look forward to getting to know you more. I pray your marriage is long, happy and more than you ever dreamed of. Love you both Cheers to the newly weds.

Has anyone had problems with people trying to be all up in your marriage? (<---- lol wording)
