Here it is: The shot that every bride wants/is now requesting: a picture of the groom seeing her walk down the aisle. Adorable ring bearer catching a peek: optional.
Look at his face. I just received a ton of pictures back from Steve and Cheryl after their destination wedding in Mexico earlier this year. I knew this couple was special when I met them, and everytime we got together on the phone or in person I felt in my gut that they were always supposed to be together.
Look at his face. When I meet with couples, I don't always work with them. Sometimes the chemistry isn't right, other times the bride unleashes her bridezilla too soon, and once in awhile I don't see the marriage lasting. That's right, if I don't get a good vibe from you, I won't plan your wedding. To date, none of my clients are divorced. ZERO.
Look at his face. But there are couples that get my heart more than others (I allow them onto my personal facebook page and everything). This couple was one of them and I feel very blessed to have planned their entire wedding. I laughed with them, and now I cry looking at their beautiful pictures and just being so incredibly happy that they found each other. Anytime Steve spoke to me about Cheryl, I could hear it in his voice how happy he was. Anytime I spoke to Cheryl, she sounded the exact same way. That never changed over the entire year that we planned this amazing wedding together.
Look at his face. Because sometimes there's drama, sometimes brides lose their minds, sometimes family members get crazy, sometimes it rains...sometimes things just go wrong. I always do my best to make sure that everything is flawless, but of course, sometimes things are out of my control. None of that matters if the love is deep and real enough.
Look at his face. That is a groom in love. That is what a wedding is about. And THAT is why I love my job.
Congratulations Steve and Cheryl....thanks for letting me plan your wedding. xo
