Their big and supportive wedding party watched on as Jessica and Rachel stood about eight feet from one another in the front yard of the gorgeous house at Thompson Barn. Their eyes were closed. Neither could stop grinning. The wind blew through their hair, and they just waited. Standing there knowing in just a few seconds, they'd open their eyes and see each other for the first time on this day.

Five whole years of marriage! 1,825 days of loving on one another, of being there for each other, supporting, encouraging, and building a life together.

The second those sheer white curtains were pulled back....and Christa emerged on the arm of her sweet Dad...Jeff's entire head just dropped. A mixture of gigantic grins, giggles, the feeling of his breath being knocked right out of him, and maybe a few tears welling up in his eyes....it all happened so fast.

Across fields of purple wildflowers, hand in hand, through deep blue lake water...Lorraine and Travis did what they'll now do for the rest of their lives....walk together, laugh together, and love together.

Their paths used to cross on this very college campus... All the steps they took in between classrooms, tests, lunch breaks, visits with friends and more...hundreds of steps on these grounds led them, unknowingly, straight to one another.

A wildly calm bride, and an equally calm groom - tie the knot!

Pine trees make a very specific sound when the wind blows through them, ya know? It's down right magical. It was this sound, and the sounds of Samantha and Jared's giggles that could be heard on this sun-drenched evening. 

Here she came, that girl he's known for so many years, the girl who made him wait 3 years before wedding bells could chime, the girl he couldn't wait to marry, and the girl who on this day in March - he would finally tie the biggest knot with.

January in the Midwest can be a little tough on ya when it comes to temperatures, and also the risk of snow...Both things came at Amanda and Ryan on their January wedding day this year, but neither affected them or their day in the least. I guess that old saying can be quite true, "Cold hands and a warm heart" - Amanda and Ryan had both.

If you asked Nate, he'd tell you he adores Julie's golden locks of hair. But, he loves those gorgeous waves so little in comparison to how he loves her heart. Julie says she loves Nate's green eyes, but the soul behind those eyes? Yeah, that's her favorite part.

It took Nick quite some time to work up the courage to send that single Facebook message that changed his entire world - "Would you want to grab a cup of coffee some time?" Little did Nick know, Kenzie hates coffee.

Kelsey came down the aisle of that old stone chapel on the arm of her Dad, and her and Andrew's life together shifted into something so much more wonderful!

A cozy evening wedding that just made everyone feel right at home!

Her Dad spent the first few weeks of her life praying - for her health, for her future, and for the man she would one day marry.

 In a daze and a blurry stream of tears, he shook the hand of the man who knew he was handing his daughter off to another man who would take just as good of care of her as he had done all the years prior.

The second Robbie turned around, the second their eyes met, their smiles spread out - and all that sudden nervousness faded away.

When Jessica came down the aisle, and Isaac saw her for that first second - all of his emotions came down his face.

These two share a love that is equal parts playful and serious. The way they cuddle and giggle together? Playful. The way they look at one another and reach for one another? Serious.
