Sarah + Scott

There is so much to say about this couple. They met at church (briefly) but really got to know each other on a missions trip to Dominican Republic where the history of "Sarah + Scott" really began.

Did I mention they both have the *biggest* heart for God and missions.

I've known Sarah for a few years now and she really is a light for God. She's so full of life. She is always smiling, seriously, ALWAYS smiling, which I love about her. She has a constant Joy! She lights every room she walks in. She lifts others up above herself and I know Scott has seen all of this in her. Though, I just met Scott at the engagement session I've heard and can see how much he loves God and how focused he is at doing the Lord's will and that was exactly what Sarah was looking for--someone focused on God and truly a follower of Christ, a preacher man ;) (she may have mentioned something about liking the tall, blonde and muscular type, too).

They've are saving their first kiss for their wedding day.

(^major props *clap hands*)

Their engagement session was the first time I saw them interact together and I wasn't disappointed. They are so so so good together. Like, fairy tale-forever kind of good. He compliments her strengths and she compliments his. They love holding hands and just being together. He makes her laugh so much and she can get him to smile no matter what. They have to deal with having a long distance relationship, but their relationship/friendship is so strong because they based it on God. Their courtship is one to be looked up to and highly esteemed. So honored I get to capture this special time of their relationship and can't wait to see them say "I do".

ara + Garrett

Incredible.

We pulled into Sara's parents house where the girls were getting ready. There was wedding decorations outside the house to get everyone into wedding mode. As we walked in we hear girls giggling, the smell of hair spray, and many smiling faces greeting us. Sara was so so giddy, like I've never seen any bride be. She was full of vibrant life and excitement. She kept saying "I get to married Garret today!!"

*with a squeal

over and over. With her Starbucks cup in hand, that said "Bride", she was getting ready to be Garrett's bride forever. As she got her dress on everyone had to hold back tears of joy because...

"SARA WAS GETTING MARRIED TO GARRETT TODAY!"

We headed off to do the First Look. Sara waiting in the car. We took Garrett back to the spot where he would see his bride for the first time. Sara headed down the path to see her Groom. She took off his blind fold and the look on both of their faces was priceless pure joy is the only way I can describe it. I believe that is truly what God intended for Husband and Wife to find in each other.

The ceremony was God-honoring, emotional and overflowing with tears of laughter and joy. Even though they got rained out and had to move the ceremony to the Barn, Sara and Garrett didn't let it put a damper on their day or their mood--high spirits the entire day. Oh, and the bridal party was fantastic helpers, seriously, the best I've seen.

Garrett + Sara and are like two peas in a pod. I know that's kinda corny but they are. They just match. They rhyme well. Mesh perfectly. They are each other's God-send.

Oh and yes, every detail of this wedding was particular and unique. Sara you had an amazingly-beautiful wedding. Check out their first dance too--incredible.
