I personally think that one of the best things in life is watching your family grow. Last October, Caleb’s sister Tori got married to our now sister, Ali, on such a beautiful, emotional, and FUN day!! Looking back through these photos and reliving their day, I can easily say that their celebration encompassed all the things that a couple wishes for on their wedding day … intentionality, stress-free, joyful, quality time with family and friends, laughter, good food, good beer ; ), authenticity, fun, and emotional moments that move you from the inside out.

Caleb was a groomsmen, I was a bridesmaid, Indie was the flower girl, and little Jet was just three WEEKS old so he did a whole lot of sleeping : ) It was truly an honor to stand beside Tori & Ali in their decision to get married and both Caleb and I can confidently say that their relationship and existence in this world has changed us both for the better. We love them beyond words and feel the very luckiest to not only call these two family but also friends.

Some of my favorite memories from their wedding day/weekend that I never want to forget include: sharing a big Airbnb with Caleb’s family, trying to figure out how to iron/steam Tori’s dress the morning of the wedding, how frazzled my sister and brother-in-law were trying to get the kids (3 weeks and 20 months old) ready and on time to family photos the morning of the wedding, singing Jingle Bells to try to get Indie to smile during family photos, all of the tears from both Ali and Tori … especially during the BEAUTIFUL ceremony, Indie in her pink dinosaur jammies running around and squealing “daddy!” during the Best Man speech by Caleb and his brother, Jet sleeping through the whole entire thing, the epic dance party.

We love, love, LOVE YOU T&A!!! Cannot wait to watch your life together continue to unfold. You are both such bright lights and leave such an impact on all you encounter. CHEERS to forever (and ever), and all the beauty that is yet to come!!!
