Imaginings of the first chapter in Happily Ever After...
Daydreams of a time when a simple touch is only inches away...
Nighttime thoughts of the warmth that only a lover's arms can bring...
Long distance phone calls filled with promises of a soon-coming forever...
Wait no more.
Though
Kim & Will's engagement session focused on their long-distance love, their Houston wedding was a beautiful celebration of two hearts that will never be apart again.
From the dress to the shoes, the garter to the bouquet, Kim made sure every detail had just the right amount of sparkle.
There was a quiet calm surrounding them adding to the sacredness of the day. I can only imagine the thoughts flooding their minds...wait no more.
Kim, you are absolutely gorgeous.
Kim & Will's beautiful union took place at Houston's
Mt. Corinth Baptist Church. A beautiful dance signaled the beginning of the ceremony, and the lovely voice of
Ms. Bee Ardoin accompanied the wedding party down the aisle.
I think Will was excited to get down to business...what do you think?
More beautiful music filled the church as the ceremony came to a close and Kim's matron of honor, Kayla took us all to church.
The sanctuary erupted in camera flashes and loving applause as the newlyweds took the first steps into their "happily ever after."
Kim & Will chose some particularly sassy ladies and handsome fellas to fill out their wedding party.
Column A Banquets in Downtown Houston exceeded their usual standard of exceptional service during Kim & Will's reception. Thanks to
Supreme Kakes for such a lovely (and delicious) masterpiece.
About halfway through the celebration, Kim changed into a stunning, feather-detailed reception dress. Then Kim & Will did something that I had never before seen at a reception. They played a round of the Newlywed Game! Sitting back-to-back, each armed with one of the groom's shoes and one of the bride's shoes, they were instructed to raise the shoe of the person best fitting the question. The entire crowd laughed along with the couple as they answered questions like "who has the most patience," and "who is the better cook?" Such a cute idea.
After the game, the floor was free for guests to dance the night away.
Kim & Will, thank you for choosing me to be a part of your day. I wish you love, peace and a forever spent in each other's arms.
Live in Love,
Keda
