This blog starts a new way we are going to blog our weddings, from now on, our stories will be shared with the images and not just a story from me and then a list of images. I hope you like the new way we are going to do this!
Melanie was so calm and cool, by far the calmest of brides I’d seen this year. When she thought something was on her dress, she looked down and said “Oh well, I can’t see it” and moved on!
Brandon, a bit nervous, but so anxious to see Melanie!
The running joke was that Melanie’s dress was in all reality a pant suit that she decided would be more comfortable to wear. Poor Brandon! So I told him Melanie looked beautiful and we left it at that!
Tears were flowing long before Melanie walked down the aisle. There was something so special about these two families. The connection between all of them through the two lives of Brandon and Melanie becoming one!
When Brandon saw Melanie, he melted, tears flowed from his face. Melanie walked down the aisle escorted by her Uncle and it seemed as if a moment in time had stopped, as Melanie reached the 2nd pew, Brandon came down to her! Melanie in tears, hugging her mother, her aunt and receiving a kiss from her Uncle and hugging her future mother in law.
Everyone not just in tears, but sobbing, not in sadness but as if an expression of uncontrollable joy.
This was not a sad occasion, but, the love and emotion of celebrating the passion of Melanie and Brandon.
This photographer had tears in her eyes as she photographed the emotion!
The families were amazing and we felt like family! That is what it’s all about for us. Not just “doing a job” but becoming friends sharing in their day and beyond!
The wedding party, was equally as amazing and SO MUCH FUN!!! They loved and cared for Melanie and Brandon not only by words but in actions!
When I heard the first dance was to Metallica I froze! Metallica, How are they ever going to pull that off? The emotion of the day led us to moment when the bride and groom took the floor. Melanie leaned into Brandon, Brandon took her hand and the music began to play.
Brandon told me I would like, no love the emotion of the song and from beginning to end the song originally scored by Metallica and re done by Apocalyptica “Nothing Else Matters” and executed by the deep passionate glances between Melanie and Brandon. It was, by far one of the most emotional songs I’ve heard and seen!
Amazing…. here are a few shots of Melanie and Brandon
