True love stories never have endings...

Let me make this observation about weddings: The bride is ALWAYS nervous. This is my favorite part.
Why? Because these nerves will be written on her face all day: during hair, make-up, pictures, etc.
But if you watch closely that expression always changes when she rounds the corner towards her husband. Her expression becomes the perfect combination of calm and excitement.
I've been there...I went from a "Please God don't let me vomit on my pretty dress" expression to "Wow, how did I get so lucky?" as soon as I saw AJ waiting for me at the end of the aisle.

Sarah looked beautiful that day as she walked up to me and asked, "Were you nervous? Because I just asked a friend and she said she wasn't..."
I interrupted her, "YES. Trust me, I was a bucket of nerves and all kinds of nauseous before the wedding".
Looking back...this would have been a great time to impart some sage wisdom on how great marriage has been and how calm she will be soon...but alas...I went with brutal honesty (Work on that Elyse).

Sarah and Russ were married on a beautiful day in Colorado: the weather was perfect, they were surrounded by family and friends and they couldn't have looked happier...see for yourself...





Love,
Elyse
