So here we are in May. The ground isn’t the greatest and somewhat a little muddy. The leaves on the trees still haven’t matured. Patrick & Leia just wrapped up the ceremony and we’re on to pictures. Leia has this gorgeous long dress on which hasn’t been bustled. I make an observation of how beautiful the backdrop and lighting is but just wished the walk there wasn’t so muddy. As I turn around Leia has already started walking towards the location I just mentioned tiptoeing through the mud with her heels digging into the ground and her hands holding the dress just high enough so she’s able to walk. Not a care in the world if the dress gets a little dirty. The dress could rip in half and Leia would still have that same smile on her face. I turn to Patrick and I see the biggest smile on his face as in “I just one the lottery kind of smile” and I realized this is what weddings are all about. I can honestly say that I was overwhelmed with the love, joy, kindness and calmness Patrick and Leia gave and received and that May 17, 2014 was the best day of their lives! LOVE!
