Oh, to be able to live in this gorgeous day with Laura + Scott once more.
Oh, waaaait—
That’s what blog posts like this one are for. Ya ready for this?

YOU CAN FEEL IT!
I know it!
It would be impossible not to, with this pair of lovebirds in front of the lens.

Ready to be sucked into some joy?
I KNOW YOU ARE!

A few months back, I started a gratitude journal. It’s a straightforward premise where you reflect on all that you’re thankful for, jotting it down on the daily to cultivate contentment in your life. It’s the mindset I brought to Jalissa and Zach’s wedding, and the one I’m about to carry over into the blog.

Ya ready?
(This is gonna be a good one, I can feel it.)

I AM THANKFUL FOR:

You never really know what to expect when a couple tells you prior to the wedding day that their crew is the best kind of crazy. With Nikki + Chase, I’d say that’s never been more accurate. Although the best part: the pendulum also swings in another direction.

It was the sound of sniffles as the brides entered the loft hand-in-hand to begin their ceremony. ..

Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
That this is the happiest lookin’ couple you ever did see?
(And if you’re not, you will be by the time you’re done scrolling.)

What’s their secret, do you suppose?

I just went and counted so you don’t have to—
A whopping 24 hugs are contained within this blog post of Tristan + Courtney’s wedding day.
And if that doesn’t give you a good indication about the kind of sweetness herein, I dunno what will.

I’ve found myself with the words this has got to be one of the most beautiful weddings ever several times on my lips since August. And ooooh, my. Just you wait till you start to scroll!

But.

I do want you to know

They said it wasn’t about the details, but the people.
They said it wasn’t about the formals, but the candids.
And I knew this was gonna be my kind of wedding.

Wanna know a little something about these epic wedding blogs?
I don’t plan what I’m going to write about in advance. Most of the time it’s an organic reflection of the things I’ve been thinking about while I’ve been compiling it, special little details I noticed about the couple or their day, or notes of gratitude that tend to reach far and wide in their subject.

Amanda and Johnny though, they’re stopping me in my tracks. And it’s not for want of any of these things, but a grand excess that’s making my heart swell. Although it makes sense, as A+J aren’t like any other. Maybe we just go on down the line?

What. A. Way. To kick off my 2019 season, showing a wedding that I connected with on so many levels—
A day for Mallory and Thomas.
A day full of quirk and sentimentality: my most favorite combination.
