Lynn & Lana Are Married

There are some stories that stick with me. . . or, maybe more accurately. . . there are some people who stick with me.

Our time with Lynn and Lana was so, so short. Their wedding was unlike any we’ve ever witnessed before. Stunning in its simplicity, profound in its depth, sacred in its intimacy.

It was a wedding of first things, first. In a small room holding those closest to them, words of blessing, love, and support were offered to two beautiful souls. Chad and I stood among them, knowing the special moment we were witnessing–these two people who have found each other, who have fought through hard times, who have come to the other side–perfectly, imperfect for each other.

What an honor it was to witness.

What a gift they have in each other.

Chad and I slipped away after a several prayers were uttered for the new couple. As we walked away, we talked about this beautiful ceremony. The “unplugged” wedding, in the truest sense of the word.

Only the essentials. Promises made, love shared, support offered, commitment spoken.

First things first.

Lynn & Lana, may your story continue to unfold as beautifully as your wedding day.
