Wedding Plans

" Love alone lightens every burden, and makes rough places smooth.

It bears every hardship as though it were nothing,

and renders all bitterness

sweet and acceptable. " 

A small church wedding with family on the morning of the 4th

One of the things we knew for sure...

is that we wanted to keep our wedding simple.

We want to look back on our wedding day...

with great fondness & affection.

We didn't get caught up in any fancy planning,

or elaborate decorating.

We chose a day that was already magical.

We traditionally celebrate Independence day

at Dana's.  

Friends and family gather together for good food, fun, laughter and love.

 *heart*

It is something we look forward to every year !

This year we are going to be adding our anniversary to the mix.

We're keeping with our special tradition...

and possibly starting a new tradition of our own. :)

When the sun starts to set...

we'll go home with celebratory hearts.

Our friends and family will gather in the yard.

We'll kick off our shoes...grab some cake

  and spread out on old quilts and lawn-chairs. 

The fireworks will light up the sky...and we'll take it all in...

  and befittingly revere the beauty of our country,

 the pangs of loss,

and the magic of love.

XOXO
