Mrs. Cardigan's Picture
Mrs. Cardigan, Austin Age and Occupation: 21, Student/Soon-to-be Special Education Teacher Fiance's Age and Occupation: 20, Student/Soon-to-be Accounting Systems Analyst Engagement Date: August 16, 2009 Wedding Date: January 2011 Venue: Vintage Villas About Me: I'm a native Austinite who was raised as a die-hard Aggie. Luckily, I'm a pretty persuasive girl because I managed to convince my high school boyfriend (now fiance!), Mr. Cardigan, to ditch his hardcore Longhorn ways and join me up at A&M, where we currently reside with our adorable dogs, Cullen & Ranger. We're currently planning a bright, cheery wedding with a ridiculous amount of DIY projects that I can't wait to tackle! I love crafting in any form, reading, and margaritas (I think I love them the most!). Organization is what keeps me sane and I love helping others, which is probably why I ended up as an education major. It gets a little chaotic sometimes when you're planning a wedding among all of the papers, projects, finals, and certification exams, but we're having the time of our lives and we can't wait to get started on our journey as husband and wife - and we're so excited to share our wedding with the hive!
About Mrs. Cardigan

I had a hard time believing that after nearly a year and a half of planning, my moment to walk down the aisle had finally come.

I heard the first few beats of my favorite song in the world, and just as the music began to quicken, the doors opened and the walk began.

I immediately locked eyes with Mr. Cardigan as soon as I could see him, and we didn’t break eye contact until I was standing at his side.

I didn’t cry—I was too happy. I couldn’t do anything but smile like a crazy person at my soon-to-be husband.

When we reached the end of the aisle, I gave Daddy Cardigan a hug.

And he handed me off to my new husband, his new son.

Mr. Cardigan and I took a moment to just look at one another, basking in the glow of what was about to happen. Then, we held hands and turned to face BIL Cardy so the ceremony could begin.

I played about 30 seconds of the VSQ music and had to turn it off because the chills were too intense. Such a powerful moment with an equally powerful soundtrack!!

So glad you wrote you couldn’t cry because you were too happy. That’s what I did and I felt like I was weird for it.
