Welcome to the land of the Late Bloomer Bride (LBB). An LBB is a woman who got married for the first time over the age of 40.
Personally, I got married for the first time at age 42 (about 20 years after Grammie had hoped). And, as I was getting fitted for a (couture) wedding dress for the first time in my 40s, it occurred to me to ask: How do we do this?
I remember tearing up driving to my radio job at WJMA when I realized that as the song played.
