The kick-off to our 2018 Season was absolute perfection!!! It felt so amazing to be with such a large group of people showering all the exuberance + joy you could ever imagine on such a wonderful young couple!!
...I was uncharacteristically calm as I arrived at the beautiful Jeriko Estate...I guess I just 'knew' it would be flawless...
...from the moment I walked in, there was nothing but smiles, hoots + hollers - with dancing girlfriends in all directions here to support their girl...helping celebrate as she married her love of a Lifetime!Waiting so patiently!
Charlie met Brittany when she would come visit her big brother away at College. She was quickly smitten & they began a friendship that would blossom for years before realizing what a perfect match they truly are. His compassion & patience matches her eager & energetic way of life - together? they are grounded...so, watching them come together for their 1st Reveal was breathtaking...the way he looks at her is undeniable...she's clearly 'his one'...

Let's get this Party STARTED!!!
...snuggles!
Hearing the MOH's stories from High School + College - of the young lady they've come to love as a sister? it brought tears to my eyes. I always envision our own daughter as a bride when I work...tonight, hearing stories of childhood friendships that grew into 'families' - so many people considering these families as their 'own'? It so reminded me of ourselves. Nothing brings me more joy than loving the people that love our own + knowing that they might quite possibly be with us forever? Absolutely completes my heart!!
oh, kiddo...I don't blame ya one bit!anyone for CAKE?!?!
and, away we goooooo....
yup! pretty smart!! xo

Congratulations on putting together a most amazing day to share with everyone you love - I so appreciate you sharing it with US!! xo
