There is something about them that is very calming, cool, relaxed and easy. They came to our engagement session with a beer in hand - my kinda people. We had an awesome time, and i knew great things were in store for their wedding.
And so I was right.
He looked at her as though she was the only person in the world. He saw her coming around the corner on the grounds of the stunning Halton Great House in St. Phillip, Barbados. He closed his eyes, his shoulders slumped in emotional defeat. She had won his heart, fair and square.
It was a family full of love. The wedding of these two beautiful souls brought together their closest family and friends at the Cin Cin by the Sea Restaurant in Barbados. The walks down memory lane and the declarations of love and devotion were incredible. Mom at one point, not realizing her strength, called for a toast. As her knife touched the glass, it broke! A loud thunder of laughter erupted, and then the party got started!
I walked into their room and was met with gals having a beer, and I instantly knew - they were awesome people. After this beautiful bride got into her rose pink wedding dress, she sat down putting on her shoes, and there was a knock at the door. In walked her groom, and I had a bit of a panic. Everyone laughed, "we've decided to walk down the aisle together!" AWESOME!!
He watched as his bride gracefully gracefully walked down the aisle at their spectacular home garden wedding ceremony. The decor created by the phenomenal Emma Corrie was breathtaking.
When I sat down for coffee with Tracey and Diego one bright August morning at the Open Kitchen, I knew in my bones we understood each other. She had a sincerity that is rare, and he had a heart of gold. Mia, their little ball of fire, danced around gingerly, and I couldn't help but be reminded of when my girls were that age. This family was truly something special.
My sister told me about a doctor she was working with - that he reminded her so much of our brother. His extremely polite demeanor, his humor, and his ever apparent intelligence. One day I received a wedding inquiry from someone with the same name - and sure enough, it was Addison.
It was coming down to the final stretch of their wedding planning. Through a twist of fate, I got an email one morning from the biggest ray of sunshine - Monica. We chatted about her wedding, her groom, and so much more. I knew it would be something special, and it was.
When a truly fun client comes my way, I do the happy dance inside my head, and on their wedding day with them. The one thing they wanted was to play mini golf after they said "I do". And we did.
