only in my dreams

i still dream about my wedding. i know it may sound selfish having two grown up kids and not being able to cope with the expenses... but i can still dream

in my wedding, i'd be wearing an ecru halter, bare back, with small beads from the chest to the waist. the skirt will be a-line but silk. i want my veil to be simple, a small ring of flowers on top. my hair will be flowing, with little curls on the end.

at the church, different music will be played besides the traditional bridal march. while exchanging vows, i want a solo pianist to play ennio moriccone's piano solo from the movie love affair. as the candles, the veil and the cord are placed on us, i want my tita ellen to sing "one hand one heart". and during communion, i want to hear "the prayer" to bless our wedding.

after the wedding ceremony, while pictures are being taken at the altar, i want several songs to be played... the male version of "how did you know", anita baker's "i love you just because" and of course, our song "of all the things".

the reception will be simple, preferably in a garden. i want all our close friends to say something during the celebration. i want music from "dying young" soundtrack playing in the background.

i want to sing my husband a song, "all of my life" as a gift for him. i want bubbles floating at the reception area.

simple but would definitely mean a lot to me....
