I can’t really put my finger on it…but something about her makes me feel like we’ve been life long friends.  From the first day we met it was like grabbing a drink with an old friend.  Catching up on life and the latest episode of The Bachelorette.  She has this ease about her that makes it feel easy.

 

Seeing her and Jeremiah together for the first time was no different.  They made it look easy.  Effortless.  To just be together.  Like they’ve been doing it for years.  They remind me of old friends…who fit together seamlessly in the simplest of ways.  The way he would rest his forehead against hers or pull her in just a little closer…made it so apparent that they belong together.  Like life long friends…starting their life together.

 

Without further adiou…Megan and Jeremiah.

      Thank you so much! I love her boots too. So much so I bought them. 🙂 I highly recommend them. Frye.ReplyCancel

One of my favorite parts of the wedding day is the ceremony.  More specifically the vows.  I just love being a part of a moment where two people promise each other a future…and forever.  I love hearing what every couple says…all the reasons that that specific person…out of everyone is the one they can’t live without.  As I stood watching Ashleigh and Andy exchange their vows they said something that really stuck with me.  They said that their home was in each other.  Something about the sentence holds so much meaning.  If you strip away the things and posessions and places…you’re left with each other.  And before they said I do…they promised that each other was all they would ever need.  And if you ask me…that is pretty beautiful.

 

Ashleigh and Andy…there’s no better way to say it than that I had a BLAST at your wedding.  I honestly didn’t want to leave.  You guys are so full of life and I am so thankful that I got to meet you and be a part of your perfect day.  I wish you guys nothing but the absolute best…and one of these days I’m going to take you on in some Rock Band.  🙂

With a guy who is so witty and sarcastic…the smile plastered on her face makes perfect sense.  His dry sense of humor mixed with her easy personality makes them the perfect pair.  As we walked around finding little nooks and crannies I realized the smile he puts on her face is more than just the humor and the jokes.  It’s a smile only he can bring out.  A smile that speaks volumes and you can just tell how completely content they are.  How easy they make it to just be…together.  They’re comfortable…and familiar…and two people that without a doubt are meant to spend their lives putting smiles on each other’s faces.

 

Meghan and Nick…I’m so excited for your wedding and I can’t wait for all the laughs we’re sure to have along the way.

Have you ever been walking down the street and you see a couple that just makes you smile?   A couple that gives you that feeling that makes you feel like you know everything about them.  And you can tell…in just an instance…how perfect they are together.  Caitlin and Jason are those people.  They are the type of couple that make you smile…from ear to ear….and never stop.  In the short time I spent with them I could just tell.  I could tell how content they were together…like that’s all that mattered.  I could tell how perfectly their lives fit together to make a whole.  And I could see how excited they were to be together…forever.  But I’ll let you see for yourself.  Meet Caitlin and Jason…

She turned the corner to walk down the aisle and their eyes met.  Arm in arm with her dad, she looked beyond the rose petal filled path toward the man of her dreams.  Chris stood waiting…patiently.  As Amanda walked toward him…you could tell…he had never seen anything so beautiful.  The tears in his eyes were proof enough that, in that moment…there was nothing he wanted more than to make her his wife.  Every step bringing them closer and closer to each other…and their perfect lives together.

 

Their day started like any other.  Excitement and anticipation overflowing from every corner.  Except, for me…this day was different.  Over the last year Amanda and Chris have become much more than just a bride and groom…they’ve become friends.  And friends I feel so lucky to have.  I not only got to see them promise each other forever…I got the chance to get to know what that means to them.  And just how much they mean to each other.  I got to see all the date nights and surprises and little nothings that make them who they are.  And make them truly special.

 

Amanda and Chris…the world’s longest blog post wouldn’t be enough to describe how much I love you guys.  Thank you for not only making me a part of your day…but reminding me every day the power of a photo.  And appreciating every part of it.  You guys are two of my favs and I have no doubt that there are ample amounts of pumpkin patches, pinterest parties and date nights in our future.  To the next chapter…
