The Beginning of Us

June 20^th, 2015. The day that has been in the making for 6 years. We found the venue of our dreams, had a menu that would get anyone’s taste buds excited, and our décor was gorgeous!

As I sat in the Bridal Suite with my girlfriends, mom, and aunt my nerves were steady as can be. I could not wrap my head around the fact that the day of my dreams was upon us. Everything had fallen into place and every last detail was perfect, except one.

The weather had turned and a storm was rolling in- not ideal for our amazing outdoor ceremony. But you would never have known by looking at me. I was ready, and the weather was going to do whatever it wanted, but was not going to ruin my day. I had in my head that no matter what, I was walking down that aisle.

And I did. I walked down the aisle with my dad holding an umbrella, past all of our umbrella holding guests to my groom. The ceremony began and the rain poured! Thunder rolled and our guests got soaked! Holding hands with my groom, I looked out and laughed.

Our wedding day, despite the rain, was incredible! The perfect launch into the new stage of our life.

Now we are husband and wife and our life together is a lot like our wedding, perfectly imperfect.
