From the Heart

The most heartfelt part of our wedding day was by far our love letters to each other. We decided not to write our own vows so this was a really nice personal touch. I was a little apprehensive about it at first because I was worried about being so emotionally vulnerable in front of a large group of people, even if those people were family and friends. Now I'm posting it for the entire world to see.

Matt's letter to me:

I love you, Sean, because you are the first thing I think about when I wake up and the last thing I think about before I fall asleep.


You always have my best interest in mind.


You are the most loyal, loving, honest and beautiful woman I have ever known.


You deserve to be treated like a queen, yet you appreciate every small thing I do for you.


Since I have met you, day by day, I appreciate life more and more.


You have shown me just how comfortable and selfless a relationship can be.


More importantly, you will make a a great wife and a wonderful mother.

My letter to Matt:

I love you because every morning I wake up and am reminded of all the good in the world when I see you.


I love you because even when I can't see any good in the world and am feeling more than cynical (which happens quite often) you make me realize just how amazing life is.


I love you for sticking by my side through everything thus far and I love you for the hardships we will endure together in the future.


I love you for the husband you will be and the father you will become.

I do. Today. Tomorrow. Forever.
