Dede + Jason / North Georgia Mountains & Waterfall Elopement

I think we all have been speaking enough about 2020 sarcastically enough, so how about we begin this blog post by all the good things that happened in 2020? Because the fact is, a lot of wonderful things have happened this year too, hasn’t it? For us, one of the most memorable weddings has been Dede + Jason’s for many reasons.

A little road trip… I think everyone needs that once in awhile! It’s so neat to me how within just a matter of an hour or two, you can really find some beautiful places around you! Sometimes, we think that we have to make a long, expensive trip out of the country to get what you call a “nice” vacation, but it’s so not true!

“In a blink of eye” is what they told me… That statement has never been so true in my life. I remember when Cherise was a teen. How did we know her back then, you ask? Craig and I were working in the youth ministry together for many years. Teenagers were our life and we loved it!

As I grow older and older, I realize more and more that life for anyone and everyone is full of joys and challenges.  There are days that are the best, but there are days that fall short.  But, there's this thing called hope that allows us to cling and to hold onto something much greater called love.  We have faith that love is what gives us any reason to live this life and to live it fully and abundantly.

Life is full of dreams... that's something that doesn't change as you get older.  You continue to dream and live your life trying to fulfill them.  Well, we are so thankful because another dream came true for us!

Love is patient, love is kind… When I think of this couple, that verse just comes to mind.  (Did you guys notice that that rhymed?  hehe) Their entire wedding day was just like that… patient and kind.  That’s the best I can describe Susan + Patrick.

Just in case you don't know yet, things happen.  We can control only so much.  Sometimes, there's nothing we can do.  Like at all... That's where love comes in.  When love enters, it just makes everything better.  It makes us stop and realize that that's the only thing that matters in life.  In the end, that's all we need.
