You may kiss the bride...


No, your eyes are not deceiving you, that is indeed a Hidden Mickey inside of a ring. That is not just any ring though, and it also isn’t for sale; it is my wedding band that I will don on October 27th of this year. As much as I love having a true Hidden Mickey on my ring, this is not an idea I can take credit for. This was the creation of my fiancée Aileen and my cousin Ali. They could think of no better way to honor my love of all things Disney than to have it become a part of me permanently.

What my fiancée hasn’t realized though is that while this is a gesture I have no way of reciprocating, other than my eternal devotion, it is also a double-edged sword. See, she doesn’t share my total love of Disney. Sure, she enjoys the occasional trip down to Walt Disney World, but she could just as soon go without (that’s a topic for another day though). But now she has forever tied us, as a couple, to Disney. “What’s that honey, you don’t want to visit the Magic Kingdom this year? Oh, okay. Ow, ow, ow why is my finger burning?!?! Oh it’s the Hidden Mickey, it needs to go home and it won’t take ‘No’ for an answer!”

Okay, that may have been an exaggeration, and you may think having a Hidden Mickey on my ring is a bit much, but to me Aileen couldn’t have done anything more to show me that she loves me, all of me. And if you ever run into me and would like to see the Mickey, just ask, I’ll be more to happy to add it to your list of found Hidden Mickeys. That is, as long as Aileen will allow me to remove the ring momentarily.
