My husband’s ex-wife is his Best Woman
When John and I got married, our wedding party consisted of one person each. My Maid of Honor was my best friend of twenty years, Kate. His Best Woman was his ex-wife, Katie. My biggest concern was that people would mix up their names. Since then, I have been told a dozen times, “You let his ex-wife be his Best Woman? That’s so weird! I could never do that.” As if it’s common knowledge that all ex-wives are evil and all new wives should be jealous of them and hate them.
Violins, serenades, and sweet moments at this Florida wedding

Melissa & Scott’s atypical Southern Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em celebration
This Southern bride, her Southern family, and her Southern groom can tell you that we’re not all the cowboy boot-wearing girls depicted on TV and not all of our weddings look like a scene from Steel Magnolias.
