Nearly two months ago, I married the love of my life and embarked on what I consider to be the best chapter of my life! We were extremely blessed to share our love for each other with our family and closest friends. This spring Sunday, May 19 th , was an absolute dream from start to finish.
The weather was gorgeous: a calm 82 degrees on a sunny day with pretty, fluffy clouds all throughout. A gorgeous wedding set in this historic American antiquity was all that a bride could ask for.

It was so nice to have a couple of hours to myself, so I could reflect on the journey that my husband-to-be and I took to get to this happy place. I got to spend some one-on-one time with my mother and best friend before my makeup artist, wedding planner, photographer, and videographer arrived later that morning.
