We had the absolute pleasure of capturing the special day of these two as they said “I do” overlooking the sound at the NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores.
It truly was a sweet intimate and relaxed wedding. Not only Francis and Heather said “I Do,” to each other, but as they stood before a group of their friends and Family, their children surrounded and supported them as they became husband and wife and two families became one.
Knowing Francis, is was no surprise that there was humor and laughter spread lavishly throughout the day. Heather, being the sweet patient angel she is, took it all in stride.
Through it all though, it was very apparent that there is a tie of love between these two. Beyond the jokes, beyond the humor, beyond Francis being Francis, no one can deny that the smile that was plastered on his face all day was one of genuine depth and one that couldn’t have been wiped away.
Fran + Heather – As you start this new beginning together, I pray that you both become the balm for each other and the scars that life tends to hand out generously. If you both will just keep looking at each other with the love that you shared this sweet and special day, If you will rely on God twice as much as you rely on your own strength or on each other, If you will remember that you are on the SAME team working towards the best solution for your family, and If you will remind yourself that it is more blessed to give than to receive, then, every day- even the most common of days, will get better than the one proceeding it.
I pray that your love will grow, your lives will flourish, your families will blossom, and above all, your relationship with God and each other will deepen a little more every day.
Thank you SO much for allowing us to serve you and share such a beautiful day with you and your loved ones! It TRULY was an honor!
