When my fiancé and I were tossing about wedding dates, trying to find the perfect time to walk the walk and talk the talk, I was stubborn. He’d say, “May 5th” and I’d say, “February 14th!” He’d say, “June 26th” and I’d cry, “Valentine’s Day!” This went on for a good month before he caved. I knew he would. He loves me. And I really wanted that love to be celebrated on the one day of the year that is chocked full of promise and adoration. You see, I’m not taking any chances. I don’t want to be a D-I-V-O-R-C-E statistic someday. And I figure that getting married during the one moment in time when love is literally oozing from life would just have to give me a little extra turbo-boost toward my golden anniversary.
Sure, I’ll have that good-luck sixpence tucked under my toes. And I’ve got my horseshoe (Thanks Trigger!) to hang above the doorway of my bride’s dressing room, as well as a rabbit’s foot, a tiny silver dolphin and three acorns wrapped in lace to nestle in that snug nook that my new push-up bra is sure to create. Oh, and I’ll be secreting a fat packet of salt in my bouquet. I plan to toss it over my shoulder when I hand my bouquet to my maid of honor during the ceremony. No one will notice, right?
But even with all that, I still welcome the ironclad protection of a Valentine’s Day wedding. And I couldn’t be happier that I’m getting one. My day will be filled with hearts and flowers and love. 
And just to make sure the universe gets the message, I’ve chosen the perfect wedding favor – “Happily Ever After” Pyramid Boxes filled with Golden Chocolate Coins. With hundreds of “Happily Ever Afters” surrounding us, what could possible go wrong?
Well, now that I think about it—maybe I should try to get Kenny Rogers to sing “Always and Forever” just in case.
