My husband and I renewed our wedding vows this past summer. We were married 20 years ago this past October, and celebrated on a glorious, hot summer day surrounded with family and friends. Our wedding day was much different weatherwise.....a cool October day with downpours of rain, thunder, lightning and gusty winds. Not the kind of day a bride envisions, but we had hone heck of a party. To this day, we comment that every October 13th since has been a beautiful fall day.....the one we SHOULD have had!!
We recalled the rainy wedding with the priest just before our renewal ceremony. He is a relative and clearly remembers that day.....and all the rituals for getting the rain to hold off, i.e. hanging roasary beads outside etc. While laughing over the beautiful days since the wedding, the priest remarked, "Well, a wet knot is a tight knot!". So very true.
