Lauren came back from this office so excited. “I loved this wedding. No, I mean I really loved it. I want to do it all again tomorrow.”
And such was the affect of Laura and Rowan, and their laughter filled wedding.
What was it about their wedding that you loved Lauren?
“Laura was THE happiest bride. She smiled so much it was contagious. Rowan was proud as punch. They are adorable together.”
“And they had the most beautiful coloured flowers I’ve ever seen. I was tempted to pinch one of the table arrangements.”
She didn’t, she photographed them instead.

Sometimes you don’t know how tough you are until you are tested.
Karah looks so delicate. Perfect porcelain skin and clear, bright eyes. Dylan can be quiet, and has a melting smile.
The week before their wedding, they found out how tough they are.
Dylan had an accident and partially severed his arm. Rushed to hospital, he underwent life saving surgery. He lost a lot of blood, and Karah’s heart dropped through the floor. The last thing on her mind was their wedding. All thoughts were with Dylan and his survival.
He made it. They sewed Dylan back up, caught the thread that his life was hanging by, and didn’t let go.
Come wedding day, and it was not lost on anyone that Dylan was standing at the end of the aisle to meet Karah. Their family and friends, laughed, cried, and laughed some more. This was a celebration of more than love. Sometimes there’s more than love. There’s life.
Karah and Dylan are thankful they can share it together.

A little side note: When I met Karah she wasn’t sure what she wanted to do with herself. She’d done product design, but was looking for something that spoke more to her heart. Since then she’s crafted a beautiful cake design business. Sweet Illusion is all her. Her cakes are art. I’m so incredibly proud of her for being brave enough to find her passion. )
Side note two: Dylan’s arm is healing well.
