What, did you go swimming?

- Ben! Honey, honey, come on.|- I have to talk to you!

- Dad, I can't right now.|- We just want to talk to you for a minute.

- I can't right now! -|Benjamin! - Get in there!

- All right, Benjamin.|- Barbara, please.

I want you to|listen to your father.

- Ben? We were thinking about...|- Yes.

what you were telling us|on the phone,

and the thing is,|nobody knows if it's gonna work out.

It's all|a leap ot taith.

It just so happened|that in my case, I was lucky.

My heart told me|to do something, I did it,

and 32 years later,|here I am.

Don't speak.|You'll ruin the moment.

You have got|a lot ot nerve!

Now, maybe this is how|they treat women back in New York,

but here in Savannah,|we have a little more respect...

tor the sanctity|ot marriage.

- Oh, do you hear yourself?|- I am not talking to you, Virginia!

- Where's Bridget? I want to marry her.|- Who the hell are you?

- Someone who gets to a wedding on time!|- Hi, we haven't met. I'm Ben.

Steve Montgomery. I used to go out with|Bridget and I'm still in love with her.

- Can I see your invitation?|- Hey, hey, hey, hey!

Excuse me! Somebody should be asking|for your invitation, all right?

P.S.- you shouldn't even|be having a wedding!

- I saw him in the hotel last night with some woman!|- Whoa! Hey, untrue!

They are just travel friends.|And she's ugly!

Why do you New Yorkers|have to be so unpleasant?

- I like New York.|- Put 'em up!

- Ben?|- Yeah?

Um, in about tive minutes, we're|supposed to be joined tor eternity,

and I was wondering...

if you were gonna get dressed.

- WelI, it it's eternity,|it can wait.

No, no, I think technically|eternity starts immediately,

especially when there's|ice sculpture involved.

- Well, Bridge.|- Yeah.

The truth is-

I'm sorry.

This always happens at weddings,|you know?

I'm sorry I took so long|to get down here. Something happened.

It's okay.|I know.

Debbie told me, and I told her that|it didn't matter because I trusted you,

and I knew you wouldn't|cheat on me.

And then I threw up. But, um-|Everything else was going wrong.

Everything was going wrong,|and my parents are separated,

and then this guy Steve,|who-

Bridge, you know what?

I always thought that there was this one|perfect person tor everybody in the world.

And when you tound|that person,

like the rest of the world|just kind ot magically taded away...

and the two ot you would just|be inside this kind ot...

protective bubble,|but there is no bubble.

I mean, or if there is,|we have to make it.

I just think that life is more|than a series of moments, you know?

We can make choices, and we can choose|to protect the people we love,

and that's what makes us who we are,|and those are the real miracles.

Stop me when it just becomes glaringly|obvious that I have no idea...

- what I'm talking about.|- No, I know what you're talking about.

I do. I know exactly|what you're talking about.

Farewell, Ben.

I tell in love with you|the moment I saw you.

And when I saw you up there on the balcony,|I tell in love with you all over again.

None ot the plane crashes|and the hurricanes...

and the other people|will ever change that.

Because when I'm on my deathbed,|I'm gonna know...

that I married the only woman|I ever really loved.

I think you just|wrote your vows.

I love you so much.

- Get her out of the rain!|- Guys, hold on.

You guys, it's only rain.

All right, all right.

I'm okay.|I'll be right back.

- It's okay.|- Bridge! Bridget!

You wanna get married|like this?

Let's go get married...|under a waterfall in Hawaii!

- Okay.|- Okay. Let's go.

Morning smiles

Like the face

Of a newborn child

Better said unknowing

Rejoicing

From the sight|of a long lost friend

Speaks to me of course

But I feel

I have nothing to give

I have so much to lose here

In this lonely place

Tangled up in our embrace

It's nothing I'm not|feeling how to fall

Wind in tow

Grapes the flow|trembling on the vine

- Nothing needs to shelter|- Don't hit my house, bad lightning.

You're gonna|burn us down!

But I feel

I have nothing to give

Well, there's one quote|that pretty much sums it up.

It's from a bishop in the 16th century.

He said,|"Marriage has less beauty...

but more safety|than the single life.

It's full of sorrows|and full of joys.

It lies under more burdens,

but it is supported|by all the strengths of love.

And those burdens|are delightful. "

I have nothing to give

Sometimes the people we meet|change us forever.

I've never forgotten Sarah,|and I'm pretty sure I never will.

Wherever she is,|I really hope she's happy.

In the end, all you can do is|commit to the people you love,

hope for a little luck...

and some good weather.

Hearts gone astray

Keeping hurt when they go

I went away

Just when you needed me so

You won't regret

I'll come back begging you

Don't you forget

Welcome love we once knew

Yeah

Where life's river flows|No one really knows

You're someone left to show|the way to lasting love

Like the sun it shines|Endlessly it shines

You always will be my|eternal love

Whenever love went wrong|Ours would still be strong

We'd have our own|Everlasting love

This love will last forever

Open up your eyes|Then you'll realize

You've always been my|everlasting love

Need you by my side|Come and be my bride

Never be denied|Everlasting love

From the very start|Open up your heart

Feel the love you got|Everlasting love

Everlasting love

If you're dumb and confused

And you don't remember

Who you're talking to

Concentration

Just seems to fade

'Cause your baby|is too far away

There's a rose|in a fisted glove

And the eagle flies|with the dove

And if you can't be|with the one you love

Honey, love the one|you're with

Don't be angry

Don't be sad

Don't sit quiet

Good times you had

'Cause there's a girl

Right next to you

She's just waiting

For something to do

There's a rose|in a fisted glove

And the eagle flies|with the dove

And if you can't be|with the one you love

Honey, love the one|you're with

Do-do-do-do|do-do-do-do

Do-do-do-do|do-do-do-do

Turn your heartache

Right into stone

'Cause she's a girl

A girl alone

So get it together

And you can fight

You're not gonna need|any more goodbye

There's a rose|in a fisted glove

And the eagle flies|with the dove

And if you can't be|with the one you love

Honey, love the one|you're with
