There was an unexplainable excitement about this wedding day. Maybe is was the anxious energy of all the guests waiting to ring in the New Year (and the new decade!) together. Maybe it was all the emotion of two families that have known each other for years finally officially becoming one big family. Maybe it was a bride and groom who have been neighbors since childhood bringing to life the moments they’ve always dreamed about. I can’t explain exactly what it was, but the energy was high and the love was abundant.

Francesca’s outgoing, vibrant personality and Ben’s quiet strength and confidence are perfectly complimentary to one another. They allow each other to shine. They bring out the best in each other. They are so different as individuals, but when you see them together you realize there’s nobody else in the world that would fit either of them better. Together, they’re incredibly loving, beautifully romantic, and a whole heck of a lot of fun to hang out with. 

Thanks for letting me be a part of your celebration, you guys. I can’t think of a better way to start 2020. <3

do small things with great love
