Here we find a well-established history of the main character experiencing deep misery in his first marriage. You go on to describe the transition between this time and the day of the wedding nicely. However, we believe you would benefit from an article in our catalog of fiction writing tips called Show, Don't Tell.
For example, the way you described Michelle's beauty without stating it directly— wonderfully done. Adding in descriptions of this nature truly makes a story shine! We hope this feedback is helpful. Thank you for sharing your story with us, and for your engagement with other members of the community.
