Guys! I have a REALLy cool story to tell about this wedding! So this past weekend was the PERFECT timing for magnolia tree’s. If you aren’t from the midwest, they’re those gorgeous pink blossoms that only show up one week out of the year. Well, this was that week!  I wanted SO badly to find one for Chris and Shelby! I drove around Friday afternoon before their wedding in search of some amazing spring blooms… Nothing. Nothing that could work. No gorgeous pinks, no gorgeous whites, NOTHING!!  I was SO bummed. I said a short prayer that evening that we would find one the following day. C’mon Jesus! Last minute miracle, please!

Fast forward to the wedding day.. Rachel and I arrived at the church and started looking for a “first touch” location for Shelby and Chris…and low and behold WE FIND A MAGNOLIA TREE! A tiny courtyard in the middle of the church held the most beautiful magnolia tree full of pink blossoms!!!!! Goosebumps ran up my arms.. my prayer was answered!!

Chris and Shelby are so much in love, have such great families and the Lord wanted their day perfect as much as I did. We hope these photos, especially the ones of the magnolia tree, remind you that the Lord has blessed your marriage like he blessed us with that little miracle magnolia tree on your wedding day :)

With Love,
Sarah and Rachel
