october 1, 2021 - the day I married my best friend.
this day was nothing like we planned, but it was oh so sweet. I have so many emotions I can’t even begin to explain, but one thing has remained - our unwavering love for each other and that no matter what we were getting married.
as much as I didn’t want to think about covid - it has been a huge part of our love story. we met at the start of pandemic, fell in love in quarantine, more plans than I can count changed due to it, and then the unthinkable, testing positive for covid the week of our wedding and cancelling everything.
below are the lyrics to the song we were supposed to walk down the aisle to at our wedding after saying I do. it was something I listened to on repeat at the beginning of covid when I felt like everything kept getting taken from me and I was in a pit of despair. but this past week, it’s words have taken on a whole new meaning.
“you turn mourning to dancing
you give beauty for ashes
you turn shame into glory
you turn graves into gardens
you turn bones into armies
you turn seas into highways
you're the only one who can”
through it all, God is still faithful and only He could make this day beautiful.
all photos were taken by mom mom, the video filmed was taken by my dad and everything edited by Caleb and I (all the vendors we had booked could not come due to exposure). I don’t think I will ever be able to properly express in words the gratitude I have for them, capturing one of the most important days of our life, while they were also experiencing their daughter’s wedding day. our future kids will get to see these special moments because of them.
