A Spring wedding planned in only a few months. I told you we could pull it off Castle!
It's our wedding day and as is customary the bride and groom are to exchange gifts before the ceremony. Knowing you Castle, I'll have some ridiculously expensive gift waiting for me when we see each other. I've thought about your gift repeatedly over the last few months contemplating what I could give you that you don't already have. Nothing fit because what do you give a man that has everything, including my heart? Indulge me, it's our wedding day so I am allowed to be a little cheesy today.
You don't need cuff links, signed first additions, engraved crystal tumblers or elaborate pieces of art. While beautiful and sentimental that's not what I wish to give you.
What I wish to give you on this day Castle is my words. My words are hard to find, even harder to speak but ultimately what I want you to have on our wedding day.
Rick,
The day you barged into my life I had no idea how my world would change. I doubt either of us did. Best-selling author, infamous playboy, ruggedly handsome 9 year old on a sugar rush. You were all those things and more. I don't remember ever not loving you. Don't be smug, there was a time Castle. I just don't remember the exact moment my annoyance at you turned into love. I think back to all the times you were there for me even when I didn't want you to be. You were so determined to break through my walls and you did. You left them crumbling at my feet, my heart wide open for you and you alone. And in the wake of those walls you left nothing but your love for me.
So today Castle, in my words, I give to you all the ways I love you –
I love your boyish charm
