If you are looking at a calendar, you will see that July 15th, 2020 is a Wednesday - and yes, we got married right in the middle of the week on purpose! We picked July 15th as our wedding day because that is the anniversary of our first date/officially dating. It seemed only fitting to celebrate it with a wedding!
2020 is also the year of COVID/Coronavirus, and just like everything else, it impacted our wedding plans - but only a little. Neither one of us are big wedding ceremony people, so we were originally totally ok with eloping... BUT our families would hate us for that. SO we decided to compromise and have the world's smallest ceremony with just our immediate family there. COVID just didn't allow us to go anywhere to get married and it didn't allow us to have a big weekend party to celebrate with all of our friends and extended family. We ended up getting married in the backyard and we settled on pushing a big party to maybe a 1 year anniversary party, instead.
This wedding was a dream come true - my vision was perfect and I was SO happy with everything...
Our Colors- Navy and Blush (Rose Gold)
Officiant- Laura Inscoe
Blake walked me down the aisle
Our fathers were the witnesses
Our moms held the rings
Blake gave me one wedding band that symbolized us becoming a family
Memommy made the wedding!
Our nieces were the flower girls
Our pictures were done by my high school best friend - Ashton
Our cake was done by a mutual friend -Katie - I used to teach with her and Joyner plays volleyball with her.
It was a super HOT and clear day
Funny part - I forgot to repeat one part of the vows and froze. Haha
There were so many amazing memories of this day. We are so excited to start our adventure to forever!
