“Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not insist on its own way. Love bears all things, believes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.” 1 Corinthians 13 Marriage is not about the overly sized petticoats or the giant peonies or the Jimmy Choo shoes. It’s not also about the Lancome finished makeup…
