Wedding - Zach & Amanda

 

In a small town church, surrounded by their loved ones, Zach and Amanda recited their written vows promising to love each other unconditionally. Their day was emotional and lots of joyful tears were shed.

Wanting to keep their first look traditional, they had a quiet moment together before their ceremony but back to back (so as not to see each other). It was probably my favorite moment of the day.

There is no doubt in my mind that Zach and Amanda were made for each other.

Congrats to the new Mr. and Mrs. <3
