Good morning, love, I will be that white elephant that will reach the altar. And I can’t wait to see you.

I love you

Yes, but that sexiest elephant in the world is only mine.

My stomach is in turmoil and I am nauseous again.

I took a shower and washed my hair. The Makeup artist and the hairdresser arrived shortly after. Time to finish their magic and the girls knock on the door.

“How are you feeling, honey?”Nellie asks me as Angel hugs me.

“I’m good, a little excited.”

“It’s your day, Kate, enjoy it and relax!”

“Yeah, sure, relax. How?”

“I don’t know but it seems something good to say. “

We burst out laughing and I feel a little better.

Half an hour later, we head towards the church. I take a quick look and see all the magnificent decorations. It is all real. I’m going to marry the man I love with all my soul.

I chose a light but intense make-up and half-gathered hair with a cascade of curls adorned with small hellebores.

Philippe gave me an immense gift this morning, delivering the bouquet of amaryllis, hellebore and burgundy callas surrounded by berries, and small hellebores for my hair. I almost cried.

The wedding dress is a dream, a classic a line cut with lace sleeves and boat neckline with a burgundy lace band.

Philippe helps me to put on the veil and walks away to admire me. He claps his hands“you are amazing, you are glowing, Kate and, believe me, he is as handsome and amazing as you are.”

“Thanks, Philippe, you made all this possible and I'm really glad I met you,”I hug him tightly.

“No tears, Kate, it was a pleasure. I'll let Max in, we're ready to go get you married. Ready? “

I take a deep breath“Yup.”

He opens the door and while Nellie and Angel are tearing away, Max appears in the doorway.

“Kate you are... you are beautiful. When he sees you, Logan will have a heart attack. “

“Hopefully not, but thanks Max. You're handsome, too. “Iturn to Nellie winking at her.“You’re the next to get married.”

“You can bet on it,”he kisses my forehead and lowers my veil as I breathe deeply. The babies feel my agitation and move a lot.

I hear the buzz of people inside the Church and when the organ starts playing, silence falls and the doors open. Nellie and Angel slowly enter first, as scheduled and I just want to run in there. But I couldn't even if I wanted to.

It's our turn. As I walk down the aisle, all my friends, my comrades, my guys are amazed and I look ahead at the altar and see an excited Logan. The closer I get, the more his eyes seem to fill with tears.

Once in front of the altar, Max smiles at me and hands me over to my future husband.

“Kate, you are an amazing elephant.”
