Many weddings are exactly alike. A day is chosen for two souls to dive into a new life that is lived as one, a day surrounded by family, friends, and flowers.

This day was a little different.

Each soul came to the occasion with two or three smaller souls. That day Ashley and Aaron did not dedicate their lives as mere husband and wife–they pledged their devotion to the kiddos, too. In a ceremony that was like so many of their family gatherings, love, praise, and laughter ensued, with a few happy tears too. So, that day, a crowd became a family.

As a guest I was blessed to witness this unique union, and to welcome new members to our family.

Cheers to you, and may you always reserve your table ahead of time!
