Zach and Haley made it official at the courthouse on Friday, then ran away to the mountains on Saturday to celebrate this new chapter with their parents and each other in the most beautiful way possible.
All week long, the forecast showed nothing but rain.
We checked it over and over again hoping for even the smallest window of light.
From pouring rain projections and actual rain on the drive up, it felt impossible.
But standing on top of Max Patch, God gave us exactly what we needed at exactly the right moment. The clouds parted, the mountains lit up, a full rainbow appeared in the distance, and for a little while it felt like heaven touched earth.
On top of the mountain, surrounded by their parents and the people who know and love them best, Zach and Haley shared intimate vows with one another that felt so deeply personal and intentional.
No distractions.
No performance.
Just honest promises, quiet tears, laughter, and two people fully committing themselves to each other in one of the most beautiful places imaginable.
After the sun had disappeared and the mountains faded into darkness, they ended the evening in the parking lot by washing each other’s feet. A simple but powerful picture of love, humility, and serving one another as they step into marriage together.
So much love. So much passion. So much joy in the middle of uncertainty.
What a reminder that sometimes the most meaningful moments come after the storm.
P.S. Can you find the rainbow in the clouds!?
