I'm going to attempt to describe how thankful I am to have witnessed this wedding by babbling and forgetting everything about grammar I've ever learned, alright? Because sometimes your heart gets so full that babbling is the only way to express yourself. We listened to Lana Del Ray (my favorite singer) as the gals got ready, and we jumped on the bed just for the heck of it. Courtney and EJ had their first look atop a private sea-view terrace, and during the ceremony, I spotted a few surfers in the distant waters behind them. And after we took family photos, a rainbow appeared. A freaking rainbow, yall. I have so much to say about this wedding- like how I love that the Bride's family and I are both Advocare distributors and I love that, and how Courtney's mom inspires me beyond words (her speech made me cry)- and how her father, who is battling cancer, is so joyful and lively and didn't skip a beat on the wedding day- showed me so much about Jesus in such little time. The wedding coordinator, Lisa (who you should email for all Hawaii wedding related things) took us out for a private tour of the island and even bought us (my second shooter and I) dinner just because. Not to mention how EJ is already a doctor at the young age of 26, how he and Court were born on the same day, how they look at each other, how she brings out his fun side and how he makes her more serious, how she calms him in times of stress and how he cares for her... how every single one of her bridesmaids is stupid-pretty (in the best way, of course) and even MORE talented, and how every groomsmen made the day that much more silly and light hearted. So many things I could say. I am thankful. This was the opportunity of a lifetime and I will never forget. Thank you thank you.
