Lisa & Jeremy

Lisa & Jeremy are two uniqiely beautiful people who knew what they wanted and their wedding reflected that. The ceremony was held in Williams Park under the trees. The entire bridal party was barefoot and their families and friends were encouraged to be dressed in their casual best. It was a day filled with love and family.

Lisa and Jeremy both got ready at Lisa's parent's home. While Lisa was having her make-up done, Jeremy was in the back yard enjoying the pool. She could see him the entire time which made her excitement level even higher. Lisa chose to wear a less popular style of dress, choosing something that reflected her style. She looked like a Greek goddess - she was stunning.




These two chose to see each other before the wedding and to have their photos taken at the park. Their first moments together were joyful - they are so obviously in love.



One of the most important parts of the photos was that they be outside, at the park, and involve water.




The ceremony was truly one of the most moving I have ever witnessed. When the worship song was sung and the entire group joined in the singing, the emotion that filled the air was palpable. I have to admit, I was also caught up in it and may have shed a tear or two. It was joyful and bittersweet as the song was also one that had powerful memories of Jeremy's mother attached to it. And while she may not have been there in person to witness the wedding, her presence was felt in the joy of the moment.




On a personal note, I have to say that Steve and I left the wedding feeling like we were family. The Wendlands are so welcoming and warm...and their dear friends, the Carlsons, are some of our favorite people. Everytime we see them we feel like they are family and we can't wait until the next time.

Lisa and Jeremy - thank you!
