A Napa Fairytale

I'm an East Coast girl, living on a tiny little island in the Pacific, twirling, leaping, and shimmy-ing my way through life, and now, unique wedding invitations! I'm equal parts nerdy and cool... okay, mostly nerdy. I started my appreciation for good red wine while traveling on the high seas, and it's only fitting that my passion for wine drinking led me to my Napa-bred honey.

OK, I know I said there would be no more tears, but I forgot about this one! I pretty much cried through my entire dance with my dad. Once you hear the song you may understand why. I tried my best to suck it up and brush them away, but eventually the chorus would roll around again and bring fresh tears to my eyes.

I can't really remember what we talked aboutI was so emotional. I remember feeling like this moment was a long time coming. I'd been away from home for so many years, traveling for dance and my dad was always very supportive of my choices, even if they were ones he would not have made. He'd been so warm to more than one boyfriend over the years and finally the moment of us dancing together at my wedding felt like, you know, pretty big. Isn't that what dads think about the minute they welcome a baby girl into the world? The weight of our journey to this moment hit me pretty hard.

I thought this photo of my family standing with their arms wrapped around each other while we were dancing, was so cute. Mr. Barrettes is definitely singing along.

Wah! I was such a cry baby. Some of our guests later told me that they hadn't cried during the wedding, but they got a little weepy watching our father/daughter dance. black wedding invitationsdance with his mom was a lot more fun and entertaining!

Did you lose it with your dad? What song did you dance to?

comments:

I can't blame you for crying because I teared up just playing the song and reading your blog. GREAT song and it's exactly why I have to have a somewhat upbeat song for my father/daughter dance. My dad wants to dance to You Make Me Feel So Young and I want to dance to My Girl.

If I can't make it thru a Barrettes recap without getting misty eyed, how in the world will I hold it together when I dance with my dad? Loving the funny photos of your mister singing along and the sweet ones of you and your dad.
