1. Five 'Brides' Showed up at My Wedding Ceremony
Lying on the couch after dinner, I noticed Fred pacing around, looking more nervous than usual. Our wedding was just around the corner, and his behavior had been off for a while now, especially with how secretive he'd been with his phone.

"Fred, something's up. You've been on edge lately. What's going on?" I asked, trying to figure out what was bothering him.
"Oh, it-it's nothing; just work and stress, you know?" he replied, barely making eye contact.
I wasn't convinced.
"Look, I know it's more than that. You've been sneaking out, and you're always on your phone."
After a moment of hesitation, he finally opened up. "Okay, fine. There's something I haven't shared. I wanted a small wedding, but it's becoming a grand affair."

"But why didn't you tell me this before?" I asked. "We're supposed to plan our wedding together. You know, this woman warned me the other day—"
"Woman? What woman? What did she look like?" he asked, suddenly anxious.
"Forget her. I only care about you. I had no clue you wanted a more intimate ceremony."
"I didn't say anything because I thought you wanted it to be grand, and I didn't want to disappoint you. I love you, Julia," Fred confessed, and his words immediately erased my concerns.
"It's fine. We'll discuss it with my father and find a middle ground," I replied, trying to reassure him.

Then, I remembered something else. "What about those secret outings, huh?" I asked. "Fred, you better not lie!"
He smiled. "I'm preparing surprises for the wedding day. I promise it's nothing bad," he reassured me, and I believed him.
We resolved our issues and refocused on the wedding, although Fred still seemed uneasy about the grandeur of the event.
On the wedding day, I stood at the chapel entrance, feeling nervous and excited. The place looked enchanting, filled with flowers and yellow balloons, a perfect setting for our love story. Guests in colorful outfits were eagerly waiting inside.
Fred was already at the altar when I made my entrance, looking a bit anxious but trying to hide it.

As I walked down the aisle, my heart was full of joy. The ceremony began, and when the minister asked Fred if he took me as his wife, he immediately said, "I do." Then came my turn, and I eagerly said, "Yes-yes, I do," too excited to wait for the minister to finish his question.
