We are each others future.
Wednesday, May 6, 2009 at 11:08PM Most of the time, a marriage is not fully tested until well after the wedding. However, Erin and Earl’s relationship would be one that would last though many years of trials, all before the proposal even took place.
They supported one another through high school graduation, college, the passing of loved ones and being separated by a call to duty that took Earl halfway around the world. Somehow, though all of this, their relationship not only held together but grew stronger. They grew up together.
The wedding day was beautiful. It took place at The Gardens at Sunday Park in Midlothian Virginia. The weather was absolutely perfect for the ceremony and reception. The reception venue allowed for a great view of the sun setting across the lake. Simply breathtaking. The event was less about the formality of ceremony and more about the coming together of a small group of people that are forever connected by the lives of this couple.
Meeting some of these people at the wedding was a truly great experience for me. This event really reminded me that weddings are about much more than ceremony or tradition. They are a celebration of complex stories of life, love, family and friends.
What a great story to help tell.
