Wedded Bliss

I was at the most beautiful wedding this weekend... 

It was the wedding of my dear sweet sister-in-law Sarah, and her new husband, Jason. 

Not only was the bride stunning, the scenery breathtaking...but the love and commitment they share is beyond inspiring!

I've never met anyone quite like the two of them!

Sarah is filled with a joy that I don't see often in people. 

Jason loves Sarah in such a way that is uncommon nowadays. 

The two of them have such a deep respect and strong relationship with God that flows over into their relationship.  It is amazing to watch, and I can't wait to see what blessings God has in store for them!

I was so blessed to be a part of their special day, and would love to share a few photos of it...

Standing at the wedding location with the bride-to-be!

  I couldn't resist taking a photo with my husband under this romantic grapevine covered arbor!

  The joyful bride-to-be getting her wedding updo!

 I was thrilled to be able to help with her makeup even just a little!

 Beautiful Sarah Beth waiting to see her groom and read her private vows to him!

Sarah Beth anxiously awaited the moment she could walk to the vineyard to meet her groom...

 

 

 

 

 

 Their first dance was choreographed to "I won't give up on us" by Jason Mraz. It was the most beautiful first dance!

I hope you enjoyed looking through these photos. It really was a perfect setting for a beautiful couple!

5 Years Wed!

Five years ago, today, I married my dear wonderful and crazy husband, Justin Meyers! It definitely doesn't feel like 5 years!  I still feel like a newly wed even after 5 years. I think that has to do with the fact that we don't have any children yet.  We have ups and downs, and the downs have only made us stronger.
I thought I would share a few of our wedding pictures as reminders of that fabulous day! I loved decorating/planning my wedding, and afterwards considered going into wedding planning since I loved it so much! I had a lovely outdoor wedding in Missouri. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day!

 Seeing each other for the first time before picture time!

 I know it is against tradition, but I was so happy we got pictures done first, and it was so romantic and peaceful walking around the grounds with just us and the photographer trailing behind us!

 Loved how the pickup in the back of the bridesmaid's dresses matched mine.

 My sisters...also my two Maids of Honor

 

 My colors were green and tropical red/orange

 

Walked down to "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge.

 Handed out roses to moms & grandmothers while "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera was sang by two fabulously talented friends.

 I loved the pickups in my dress!

 Exchanging rings...

 Petals were dropped from the balcony as we were introduced as Mr. & Mrs. Justin Meyers!

 

Haha...and there we go! (Justin was excited about the Hummer)

Tonight Justin is taking me to The Macaroni Grill, where he first proposed to me!
