He cancelled our wedding for the seventh time
A spring wedding in Central Park, cherry blossoms raining pink and white, our families blending my Italian fire with his Irish charm.
“Picture it,” I said, leaning against his shoulder, “Nonna’s lasagna steaming next to your mom’s soda bread.”
He chuckled, his arm tightening around me. “And a band playing tarantella and jigs. Total chaos—perfect chaos.”
“Colors?” I asked, already sketching in my mind, my jewelry designer’s eye for detail taking over.
“Ivory and sage,” he said. “Like new beginnings.”
I nodded, picturing my gown flowing, his tux sharp, our vows echoing under an open sky. “It’s going to be beautiful.”
