This year’s wedding season ended with one of my favorite couples – Meredyth and Brian. I love how in love they are and how absolutely genuine they are.
Besides their love for one another they love their furr baby Olive with so much unconditional love it melts my heart. I always ask the bride and groom what they love about each other and I admit I got a little teary when I read how much Brian adores their pooch Olive. Brian Surprised Meredyth by having their pet sitter Caitlin bring their sweet pooch Olive to see them before the ceremony. I admit I cried. Such a beautiful moment!
Question for the GROOM: What things do you love the most about her?
Not necessarily in any particular order…
· That I can take her anywhere and she make friends. A work event, a social event…doesn’t matter because she’s making conversation the moment we walk through the door.
· Her compassion for others. She is so giving to others and will provide for someone else at the risk of going without. I so respect her ability to always think that way.
· That she brought Olive into my life.
· That I waited this long to finally get married, and I couldn’t imagine being more blessed with the perfect complement to me.
Question for the BRIDE: What things do you love the most about him?
His love for our families, me and our pup Olive! I love his passion for sports and his desire to be healthy. His cleanliness! He loves to clean, ha! He makes me laugh…A LOT and did I mention how handsome he is?!
