There are two kinds of weddings. One where the couple is super stressed and another where they simply don’t. Weddings are a BIG deal! They’re a one of a lifetime event where many feel pressured to make it perfect. But, just like like anything else in life, you can choose to allow that pressure to affect you or not.
Now that we’ve become “middle aged” and have kids that are entering their teenage years (wow that’s so weird to write), we can’t help but see weddings in a new light. At the beginning of our business which is now more than a decade ago, we went to weddings and thought how we wished we could’ve done that, had this, worn a different dress, etc…
From these photos, there’s no doubt that Victoria was stunning in her dress, that Melvin was completely dapper and that every detail of this wedding was beautiful. Yes, all those things are true, but I will remember Tori + Melvin’s wedding by the key emotional moments that will always stand out to me.
There’s a sweet bride and then there’s Gabby. She has the sweetest smile, the sweetest voice tone with sweet words flowing through… She’s always calm, patient and gentle. When I meet someone like Gabby, it always inspires me to become more like that. Yes, I do need more sweetness, gentleness and patience in my life!
You know, there are some really smart people out there… the ideas that people have fascinate me! Like Uber… Airbnb… what an amazing business concept, right? Like, I would have never even thought of something like that! Well, Shanae said that she got an Airbnb to get ready with her bridal party, so I was curious as to what this place that she chose was going to look like!
Where do I even begin with Stephanie + Bryan? How about... we go way back. Well, with Stephanie anyways. Back to when she was a little girl. We all used to all attend the same church, a church that we still like to call home, Victory World Church.
