During a routine visit to the hospital, Ethan’s nurse, Carla, pulled me aside and nervously whispered, “Look under your husband’s bed when you go back to the room.” I had no idea what to expect, but when I did, I found a woman hiding under the bed, and it sent me into a panic. I was ready to call 911 when Ethan tried to explain, but the woman quickly revealed that she was a wedding planner hired by Ethan to organize a surprise wedding for us. He’d been planning it for months, wanting to give me the wedding I deserved.
The secrecy and bizarre hiding under the bed had me shaken, but once the truth came out, I couldn’t help but laugh through my tears. Ethan apologized, admitting his plan was far from perfect, but all I could think was how much I loved him, even in his crazy moments. We laughed together, and though I was still stunned, I realized this surprise was born out of his love for me.
