See Canyon Fruit Ranch Wedding - Kiersten & Michelle

I could say so much about these two. SO MUCH. But as I sit here with my fingers hovering over the keyboard, all I can see is Kiersten & Michelle’s first dance playing on repeat in my head. With their friends and family gathered around them, they sang “Your Mess is Mine” (by Vance Joy) to one another as they swayed in the light of the setting sun. And in that moment, I knew these two might just be the most marriage-aware couple I’ve ever come across. It’s one thing to wear the dress, say the vows, and look longingly into your lovers’ eyes. But it’s quite another thing to commit to sharing a messy existence with another human being. Because that’s what marriage is, no matter who you are — it’s the most beautiful mess there ever was. These two don’t take the love of the other for granted, and wouldn’t waste a drop of it for the world.
