On the day of my wedding, I panicked and had serious doubts about my future. I didn’t want to go to the church, so my family tried to force me because they liked my husband-to-be so much. My little brother was particularly anxious to pull me out because he couldn’t wait to get my room. My mother literally dragged me to the church, and I thanks Saint Anthony for she did so. Now I’m very happy with my beloved husband. He treats me like a queen and loves me much as I love him.
