Good times, great friends!

Even though this has nothing to do with mine and Colton's wedding, I felt the need to share.

In recent months Colton and I have befriended a most dynamic couple. They have forced us out of our little shell and introduced us to some wonderful people. In a mere matter of months we have pockets full of fun memories and hearts full of gratitude for the wonderful couple who have brought so much to our lives.

In true Nicole and Shannon fashion they decided to push their wedding up almost a full year and pulled off, with immense help from family and friends, a wedding focused on what really mattters. Family and friends. It was a party that no one wanted to leave. One that when the lights finally flickered and you were headed home you felt satisfied knowing that life is good and love is still just as giddying and contagious as ever was.

Start to finish it was a fun wedding. Everything from Shannon's beautiful vows analogizing moss and rock, he being the moss of course, to the newly wedded couple trying to exit through the locked door after the ceremony, to the beautiful toasts, to the dancing and karaoke. That's right, karaoke. We were lucky to have so much plain 'ol fun.

So while this post may not directly relate to mine and Colton's wedding, I can only hope that our day will capture the same essence that this beautiful couple manages to inspire around them.
