Chad & Kinza : Wedding
September 28th, 2013
" I have found the one whom my soul loves"
Song of Solomon 3:4
I love Autumn- It has long been my favorite season. The leaves- the air- the skies- the color of all the weeds and trees and just everything!
It all comes together in such a magnificent way and i love it! Fall weddings? Of course, i love them, too!! =)
Chad & Kinza were married on such a day- It was perfect.
They had a morning wedding -which is becoming a rare thing these days-
and it was so fun to do that again!
We were up before dawn and were taking photos before it was light outside-
but it made no difference in the amount of excitement or anticipation for anyone who was involved in the wedding.
We started at Lititz Dunkard Brethren Church-
A small, simple, beautiful country church that reminded me of my childhood church-
(before it was remodeled).
And here is her day starting with the details- Green with a burst of Orange! ( we loved the flowers - by Sharon Beiler )
love her dress
and champagne shoes
And then we were ready. And it was time to set up the "First Look"- which was so adorable.
We had Chad go to our destination spot first- The Millport Concervancy-And then we brought Kinza over with one of her girls-
Gave them a few options/instructions about how they wanted it to happen
and they had that beautiful first moment on their wedding day. To see each other for the first time -
That moment where two people start that very special day - just the two of them- I loved this first look.
Sweetness.
Here is Chad & Kinza's Story:
Our love story started with a dream. God was right there making it all happen when neither one of us had a clue. Chad dreamed he met a girl who became his girlfriend and later on his wife. Little did he know that a couple months later his life would be changed forever. It was at a volleyball tournament when he first seen me. After that he couldn’t sleep, or stop thinking of this girl with dark eyes. Funny thing was I had no idea that he even noticed me. I didn’t know it when he came around to our youth night (volleyball) either. I was completely clueless until I got a few “hints” from one of our mutual friends. I knew who Chad was but I never in a million years thought he liked me. We started texting and a few weeks later he took me for a ride in his big white Chevy Duramax truck. I was a goner then. I fell head over heels for this cute country boy who had a big truck. That Sunday he talked to my dad and he had to wait for 3 months till I graduated to start “officially” dating. We have been pretty much inseparable since then!! Everything happened pretty fast but I know without a shadow of a doubt that He’s truly the love of my life!! He’s everything that I prayed for plus so much more. I am so humbled when I think of how God brought us together and what He brought us through. It is so amazing what prayer does for a relationship. Then on May 16th at the Bushkill Falls in the Pocono Mountains right in the middle of a log stretched very very high above the stream. He got down on one knee and asked if I would be his wife! After much laughing and crying I said yes!!
Love that story. Thank you Kinza. Very well written.
Here she is! The lady of the day- You will see what Chad means when he talks about "those dark eyes". =)
What a great bridal party! =)
And then it was time to get these two married. Loved the detail in the invites & programs.
Do not miss the little note that is handed to Chad from Kinza by the little flower girl.
Great idea!
