Faith and Brandon got married in her parents’ living room, surrounded by only their closest loved ones, in May. They graciously dealt with everything that was thrown at them this year, and lovingly promised their lives to one another on their originally scheduled date, because being married was more important to them than waiting for a big celebration. It was a beautifully sweet and intimate moment, and the love was palpable that day.

A few weeks ago, though - they got to have the big celebration they’d originally planned. The whole day felt like a sigh of relief after holding their breath for several months. Because they’d already been officially married, there was a peaceful and lovely energy to this day - the time had finally come to gather with their people and celebrate their marriage together. After the beautiful Part II ceremony, guests talked, laughed, ate, danced, and made crazy faces in the photo booth. Faith and Brandon held hands and celebrated (as strange as it sounds) their already-established marriage at their reception. Joy abounded. Love was felt. 

Thanks for letting me be a part of both of these days, you two! You’re an awesome couple, and I’m truly so happy we got to celebrate you on both of these days.  

do small things with great love
