Beautiful Wedding


A young woman we know married the love of her life yesterday, and we were so blessed to be there.

Chelsea and Emma were close pals in their teen years and still care about each other, though their paths don't cross much anymore, work, school, marriage have a way of doing that.  We are in that season of life when our kids and their friends are getting married.  I'm enjoying this season so much!

This wedding was so Chelsea.  She is detail oriented and over the last 10 months she has worked on those details to give the exact romantic atmosphere she wanted.

Lace and burlap, soft pinks, candles, gorgeous flowers, homemade bundt cakes (made by the bride, Mother of the Bride
and both grandmas).  

Our gifted friend Susan of Divine Florals, did the flowers for this wedding also.  There were a lot of flowers for this wedding, so I got to help out with making the arrangements for the centerpieces.



The only detail the bride couldn't control was the weather.  She dearly wanted to be married outside, but we had rain, so the ceremony was set up inside the huge tent at the wedding venue.  

Here are some photos and videos of the wedding.






Here is a video of the bride coming down the aisle and a bit of the ceremony - Here comes the Bride!

It was a beautiful day and we were so happy to share it with them and to celebrate this happy event in their lives!

God's blessing to them, and may their marriage glorify God.

ps - sharing with permission from Becky at Hospitality Lane.  She's the Mother of the Bride.  I'm sharing also because so many of you know her and have shared in Chadd and Chelsea's story, and have prayed for them.  Continuing prayers welcomed.

I was here earlier and had to return to take the time to look at all the pretty pictures and the wonderful videos. It may have rained, but they really did have their own sunshine with all the love of family and friends. May God bless them richly as He already has done and will continue to do. Thanks for the review...I'll be watching for Becky's.
