I’m finally married! Raising funds for a mini-honeymoon
5 years ago
FOLLOW ME ON BLUESKY!SUPPORT MY WORK ON PATREON!Commissions:Que Slots Open!Click Here For Commission Info, Prices and Policies! Hello everyone! After five attempts (will be sharing some funny art to tell a bit of the story) my fiancé of five years, Malvir and I are finally married!
We have had a string of hardships first we wanted to get married at the titanic museum but that was during when I got accepted to my Don Bluth animation class. I got really busy and stressed and couldn’t both study and plan the wedding and even though my mom has put down a deposit on it we made the tough decision to postpone, so that “ship sank”...
THEN we picked a new theme, Disney’s tangled which we feel actually coincides a lot with our real life love story and Malvir looks a lot like the leading man from it. We picked a new venue called “Noah’s”. We wanted to do a more “do it yourself” since me and my friends are artists, but my other side of the family sort of took over and started to be like a train off it’s tracks, we were going along with it anyways because protesting did not good and My family hired a decorator we were all set had a new date and THEN... we missed the boat at Noah’s! As in the venue went bankrupt.
So my stepmom who was already taking control of everything anyways decided FOR us that we were now going to have a crazy huge extravagant wedding at the Hilton for 150 people we didn’t really want BUT we got to keep our theme and our date. Sure we’d rather put that money towards a roof over our head, or security and food but it wasn’t our money or our choice and were literally told “it wasn’t about us”. ANYWAYS we were all set to have our wedding THEN our Rabbi died suddenly while on a vacation. We mourned they loss, found a new officiant and were all set to go forward even got to keep the same date! AND... dun dun DUUUUN!!! Covid forced us to cancel our wedding.
Fast forward to two weeks ago and we FINALLY got to have a VERSION of our dream fairy tale wedding. It was beautiful still over the top and more than we asked (which we felt was sort of wasteful since less than 30 people came) BUT again not our money or choice and we got to sing and dance together and finally be married and start our life!!
We have been through many many difficulties over the last few years. Including my husband having to work a contract job that keeps him away from home during the week out of town where I only get to see him 2 days a week.
Because of Covid we can’t go to our larger dream destination of Japan, BUT We want to finally go to pigeon forge and the titanic Museum and all the sites in Tennessee we originally would have been able to see. We estimate we will need to raise around 3K to go.
This would include 7 nights of hotel, tickets to the museum, the food, and one couples massage to de stress.
I am selling 50 limited edition thank you prints that will be mailed, personalized and a small headshot sketch of your choice, done on traditional paper included with them for those that contribute 100 or more! I’ll link the image in a moment!
