a true old time classic LW story...
but in the real world this sort of shit doesnt happen.
The wife would be screaming or shriking or whining about how he should of asked her first or he spent too Much on THEM and not enough on the daughters wedding....
been there. done that. Got the crappy T-shirt
This is a true 'Loving Wives' or, (more accurately) a 'Loving Husband' story.
Well done Slirpuff.
Truly enjoyed this tale with your creative writing. Wedding certainly can be a headache, thanks for reminding me. Thanks again for sharing.
Not ridiculously easy or porn star sex. Just two people in love who have to struggle at times to make it through. One of the best things is that his wife ends up REALLY recognizing and appreciating him. The first morning back dropping her robe and taking him back to bed said it very clearly. I love you and I love what you do for me. I think that's more important to most guys in the long run. Hot sex is great but having someone appreciate you and what you do is the glue that holds everything together. It was a wonderful second honeymoon. Nice writing and a refreshing read.
What a pleasant surprise - as others have observed, a story of a 'loving' couple. It's downright inspirational! Maybe I should whisk my bride of 30-plus years off for a romantic tropical holiday... Oops! Too late. Already booked on the cruise for August! HAHA! Thanks for your continued writing, its better and better all the time.
This is what I like to call a feel good story.
Thanks for writing !
Great to have a story like this in LW. They don't come too often.
Somebody else mentioned this, but it's true. Not only are you getting to be one of the most productive and accomplished writers on this site, you keep throwing curves. I don't mind reading the same basic story over and over again as long as it's well done, and some very good writers have a favorite theme they return to many times. You have your favorites too, but you are doing more different kinds of stories than virtually any other writer around here. Keep them coming. Oh, and this one was damned good.
"Sigh" Must be nice to have money. I had money (and sex) once. But that was BEFORE I got married! LOL! Great story, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
Slirpuff has moved into a role of realistic sagacity with his writing. We now realize he has a grasp on the insights, the nous, of an experienced viviente. Born on the far side of the tracks, as his earlier writing exposed, here is an intelligence honing itself on practise, wateres by vast experience of the things he likes to write about. The family unit. In all it's functions, dysfunctions, malfunctions and scrapings of worth, loyalty and happy times. He's learning from the mistake of posting too much too often. This was class. Go and see it. From your correspondent in residence...Har...Mancelt.
You really had me worried there at the beginning with some of the asides and the LW category but when they got back home it was obvious that all was well.... Nice work as always
A feel-good story. I ejoyed it. Thank you.
Excellant charactor developement and it read like you really enjoyed writing it. Thanks for sharing your hard work
best wishes

Making time for each other is the key to a happy marriage. Great story
A very well written story and a great story line. Happy endings are always nice to read.
Thanks
the acknowledgement that the actions of the husband were transformative in his life. IOW his deeds transformed something in his life. Not only did he have a great second honeymoon but also he created an even greater life for him and his wife -- transformed it if you will -- from ordinary to extraordinary.. If that's not enough, he gave some guidance to his future son-in-law. (Most of us want our inlaws to be just like us.)
As one idiotic commenter said this isn't how it happens in real life. Duh! This is how we all wish it could be. And for those of us with the means to do so, it encourages us to take that cruise or romantic trip -- that the tropical island was not the only way to make it happen.
I love the way you, not in thes story but in many of your other stories, let the characters be human, make mistakes and recover without one spouse trashing the other's life in the process. Nothing wrong with feeling good after reading a story in LW instead of sick to your stomach and a heavy heart wondering how one human being could be so cruel to another that he professes to have loved for 20 or 30 years. And the reason? She had sex with another man.

A very good story and what we all wish could be our life with our wife.
Thanks for the entertainment. Mike from Texas
....in all ways no doubt and hey he was forkin' out the big bucks so he'd definitely upped his odds. Really liked how you dealt with the wedding planning and pricing slirp dog, (or maybe the guy was just worried about his own h-moon costs, three to an aisle seats in first class?- had to be Delta.) It also rang true the feeling about pictures and their life expectancy. With digital, they'll be erased before the people get home. Can you describe the difference between "heartbroken" and "devastated"?
I really enjoyed this little tale of true love and romance. Here, in the real world, we should be so lucky to have a life like that. Thanks for your story.
After reading this..time to start planning !!!
Loved this story !!!
Your writing gets better and better. You have the ability to attack a story from very many different perspectives. I thought I could see where this one was going but you 'tricked' me completely. A very good read that promotes some very wishful thinking. Don't stop writing!
Loved the read! It was and enjoyable romance between a loving husband and wife!
Where do I find this resort?
Thanks for writing!
I'm a bit mystified as to why your stories like this are so well received in the "loving wives" forum. To me, this was a very slow, boring read with no "pay off". This would have been okay under "non-erotic" or "romantic", but was very disappointing here. In the future, if you feel compelled to post this kind of crap here, please start the story with a warning statement, e.g., "Warning. This is a slow-moving, boring story in which nothing interesting happens." Peace.
Not everyone on here is a pervert who wants to read L.W. stories about sluts, wimps, cockolds, gangbangs, and black babies. We like stories about real life once in a while, and if you and your wife, if you have one, don't have passion, love and sex in your marriage, than shame on you. Loved the story myself, Thanks.
SP, Thanks for a story about real life, and a couple who care fort each other. Sure the fire goes down, but if you work at it it can be brought way back up again
This is how a man and wife are supposed to be. I loved this little tale.
Your writing has improved tremendously. The characters were consistant and believable. Great job!!!
The money he didn't spend on their daughter's wedding he spent on solidifying theirs! If I still had a daughter to marry off, I'd follow this example. Well done! Nicely written and fun to read. Thank you.
To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world...
I did like it. Good work....
Man, I'm not usually one for romance or feel good stories but, damn it, I absolutely loved this story. Jean is the type of woman any man would be proud to call his own. - lonewolf3307
No cheating, swapping, fantasy play, ....just a man and his wife in real life.
Thanks.
It feels like it have been written while drunk or on drugs. It's a shame,but this is by far the worst that this writer ever produced !
I wanted to read about the sexy young couple, not about gross old folks.
This is a very well done story by the great author I have read before.
you will age eventually and realise how special love can be
Dwornock - The title would have given any intelligent person a hint that the character was not a teenager, and if that didn't work then the first line would. Just pass the story by instead of voting it down just because it doesn't fit with your peadophilic tendencies. Some, if not most, of the best fictional characters ever conceived are over the age of twentyfive, should they all be slighted? You're an idiot! Why don't you just go to 'Mature' where you can complain about every story!
Enjoyed it. Thank You.
It's nice to read about a loving couple who are happy. It's so rare these days.
This story reminds us that some relationships ARE wonderful. Not perfect, just good. I envy the couple.
5* only because I can't give you 10.
Now this is a LOVING WIVES story. My wife an I had already been divorced for several years before I walked our daughter down the aisle; I would much rather this story had been ours.
Thanks for a great read.
With all the tales of cheating, revenge, cuckolding, and other shit, a REAL FEEL GOOD TALE is just what the Doctor ordered! This one made me smile. Thank you, Slirpuff!
I wish I could have given this one more Stars than just 5, but I had to settle for that. :)
that keeps a marriage healthy and viable down through the years. What is so great about this story is the realization that the work was worth it. Sure, their marriage wasn't perfect, but in a sense it didn't need to be. As long as they have each other, nothing else really matters. Well done Slirp! An easy 5 stars! Thanks!
and about the best wedding advice a man could take. My bride and I will hit 37 years together in August and our daughter is getting married next March. This one hit home.
This story was well orchestrated and entertaining. The emotion was enthralling. I think the characters were well thought out with scenes flowing extremely well paced. Respecting the humanity of the characters was a priority for this author and deserved a 5* rating.
As in tense. Like so many on this site you seem to be in love with the past perfect tense.
"if you wouldn't have been so cheap ... " "she wouldn't have had to worry ..."
The proper tense in these situations is the present tense. "if you weren't so cheap ..." "she wouldn't have to worry ..."
I don't understand this love affair with the past perfect tense, but any half-way decent editor can help you with this.
I thought I'd read all your stories. It was great to find one I missed. Especially one so full of past perfect tense. If I wouldn't have looked in the archives, I wouldn't have seen this one.
Great storyteller.
Thank you for a wonderful but all too brief respite from reality. Ahhhhh.....but what could have.... ........might have been. :-(
I was pleasantly surprised that things didn't go downhill for them when they so easily could have...
Interesting to think that he might have spent more on the two sets of trips combined than he was willing to pay for his daughter's wedding... but considering it may have saved his marriage, he effectively got two marriages for the price...
From his introduction I thought we were going to be reading about the fade-out of a marriage.
I was very pleasantly surprised.
You can write an upbeat story that comes out nice at the end, way to go.

Realisrtic yet a very nice fantasy. Very well-paced and romantic story.
...........change of pace from the overabundance of tension and stress stories which seem to abound at this domain. Will save this for rereading during dark times.
Thanks.........
She would have had at least a GENERAL idea of where they were going by the signage at the gate.
For a porn story this was something.........else.
It is in LW, because it is about a loving couple.
I understand your thinking, I have read LW for years and have become a bit used to LW being used in an ironic way.
But, sometimes it's nice to read about LW in its true meaning.
Not the usual LW tale but a great, truly great, story in what I think of as "Loving Wives". Yes Slirpuff keep up the great work!
that a story about a real loving wife is questioned in something called loving wives
A real WOW story. Real cute and very well laid out. Could do with a bit of editing but still doesn't detract from the story. Five stars.
I've read a lot of stories by Slirpuff recently and this one is my favorite by far. I was worried at first that this was going to devolve into a story about two people who let their marriage grow cold and got the exact reverse. Steve is a true romantic genius and it made me very happy when, in the end, Jean had finally dropped her reservations and ideas of being a staid married woman and embraced the romance. More couples need to do this kind of thing and it was fortunate they had the financial wherewithal to pull it off. Keeping a relationship loving and vital requires work but it's very much worth it.
Wonderful story!
This story and like some of your other fantastic pieces of work I have tip my hat to you and say yet again you start it off like what the hell then your passionate side kicks in and turns this ugly duckling to a swan type of story aka starts off dull then you turn it into the most perfect story now I would love to know why you have stopped writing with these sort of stories you should be proud of yourself and keep writing these fantastic stories I really do hope that you take notice and start writing again because it would be a crying shame for such amazing writer just to stop like this I really don’t think you know how much of a amazing writer you are if you can’t see it let these fans tell you
Always nice to read a genuine loving wife story.
Thank you for that one, author.
With what Jean said at the end,why are they barely getting along as the beginning stated?.
Beautiful, sweet and poignant! Romantic and loving. Just the way it should be!
These idiots like KarenWoods and SwingerJoe believe that this category is about cheating wives - NOT! Cheating wives always get divorced so they no longer meet the wife definition. Instead they are just SLUTS!
One of the actual loving wives stories in this category. I honestly kept waiting for the shoe to drop but was pleasantly surprised that it didnt. Thank you and I hope you write more of these types of loving wives stories.
5 *****'s if it had been posted in Sci-Fy & Fantasy! Flew Delta first class to Miami for a cruise once, they were first rate. This is how to write a romance story. Signed: BTW
Glad they are happy with one another,but I don't think she deserved the island get away.
A Real Loving couple story, no cucks no hotwives, just 1 couple exploring themselves....love it....3rd time I have given 5*s ever on this site.
Well done.
Fantastic
JJ
Im shocked, it was a good story and, I hate to say it, I expect it to turn into an island cucktail (get it cocktail, cucktail?) What not even a chuckle? Youre one tough crowd.
I kind of shocked that I missed this my first go around. If I could still have favorites this would be there. Absolutely astonishingly beautiful. It's a reminder that marriage requires work no matter how long you have been married. My husband will thank you in the morning. He never has to ask but I haven't been aggressive in far too long. Thanks Slirpuff.

If more couples thought about it, something to revitalize a marriage about the time empty nest syndrome begins and in this case to thank the wife and let her relax after all her work. A very good story, 5 stars.
An OK read, but I like LW yarns to be gut wrenching and full of cheating, lies, deceit, skulduggery with some erotic action thrown in. This reads like a Mills and Boon love story, so 3 stars.
My comment below criticised Slirpuff’s story for reading like a Mills & Boon romance (sorry Slirpuff). After all, ‘Loving Wives’ in Literotica is an oxymoron. So it was frustrating for me to plod through this yarn expecting cheating, lies, debauchery and other sordid shenanigans when there was none. If I had wanted to read a ‘happy ever after’ wedding yarn then I would have gone to the Romance section of Literotica or borrowed a Barbara Cartland novel from Grandma.
*
A wedding offers so much scope for sordid human behaviour. So here are two scenarios which would spice up any wedding yarn, and both actually happened in real life.
*
In the first scenario the ‘best man’ delivered his wedding ‘gift’ to the bride - a thorough fucking - shortly before the nuptials. Nine months later the bride gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. The groom was thrilled, but was completely clueless as to his cuckold status. The baby girl only discovered her true paternity many years later after all three ‘parents’ were dead and she had a family of her own.
*
The second scenario happened many years ago when I worked for a large engineering company. One of the directors had a 22-year-old daughter who was engaged to a young engineer at the company. The wedding was huge, with an enormous budget, and planned with military precision. The ceremony went well and the ‘happy couple’ departed on an exotic honeymoon in the Seychelles. Two weeks later they returned to announce their divorce, then the bride eloped with a 35-year-old married father of 3 who also worked for her father. The affair had bubbled away for a year but the bride didn’t have the courage to cancel the wedding preparations which had become an unstoppable circus. I will never forget the scandal and humiliation resulting from that wedding and I often wonder what happened to the ‘bride’ and her lover.
*
Anyway, I’m sure that there are lots of other sordid wedding scenarios to spice up any wedding yarn in Literotica ‘Loving Wives’ which will keep me reading for years. Maybe I should write one? Watch this space!
Wow…so, so, so good of a story! An excellently written story.thank-you so much!!!
Enjoyed this lovely tale, especially the second half. Thanks for your writing.
What a lovely story. I am happy re _reading all of your stories. Always disappointed with some of the comments. Why on earth do some people have to complain, like the idiot below, that a story is in the wrong category. It is a free story site that the authors give a lot of their time for us. Have the decency to congratulate them for their work and stop nitpicking. Thank you so much this story in particular.
