I keep coming back to the little ways Michala and Joe made their wedding day about more than just getting married. The day before, they tied their cord of three strands together.
During their ceremony, they placed their vows and a bottle of w**e into a box to open and enjoy on their first anniversary. There were family dances. Board games at the reception. A wedding painter creating something right in front of everyone. And eventually, the best ever, Penn State Creamery ice cream.
It was a wedding that made room for the things they loved. Their faith. Their families. Their friends. Their inside jokes. Their traditions. Their personalities.
And their very clear PSU allegiance. 💙🤍🐾
I think that's the difference between a wedding that is beautiful and a wedding that actually feels like your wedding.
You don't need to add more traditions just because they're traditions.
You don't need to make your day look like everyone else's.
You just need to leave room for the things that make the two of you, you.
And those are usually the things you'll remember. 🤍
