Justine + Steven are married!! I loved all the details Justine put into her wedding… she collected broaches from friends/family to make her bouquet ‘just right’ with her wedding colors of blue and lime! Gorgeous!! They were also blessed with a perfect day of sun, blue skies, and puffy white clouds! The ceremony was beautiful. Justine’s dad walked her down the isle in his dress uniform. They incorporated two unique ceremonies into the program. They had a hand ceremony where they face their palms up over each others palms while the minister read the vows they were making to one another. Also, before the ceremony each of the guests were given a bag of clear blue and lime rocks. During the events they were asked to take a moment to make well wishes for the couple on them and then place them in a keepsake box just before the couple also poured in their mason jars full of colored stones as well. The guest nearest me wished for “4 future kids” for the couple!! hahhaa. Justine — just so you know… most of my brides become pregnant within a year of marriage. If I had to guess… I would say it’s about 80% of my brides!! 🙂
The reception was at Heather Downs Country Club. The couple was surrounded by so much love!! The speeches showed how dear this couple was to their friends/family. I was honored to be apart of their day!
