Chelsea and Bill were married at the Noble Victory Memorial Chapel at St. John’s Northwestern Military Academy’s campus, followed by a fantastic reception to celebrate at the Golden Mast Inn. From start to finish, these two were SO excited to get married! Their friends and family who surrounded them were equally excited for the “best day ever” (as Chelsea’s hand bag said so perfectly)!

Chelsea and Bill are high school sweethearts. I love that so much because there is an aspect of growth as individuals and as a couple that is so important when you love each other for so long. And it’s SO evident when you see Bill & Chelsea together. They are best friends. They are better together. And now (after spending many of their college years miles and miles apart) they are married!!

Their wedding officiant spoke of love as a fairy tale… of how Bill is the knight in shining armor who will always fight for Chelsea’s heart. And it’s true – the years at different colleges and long distance miles can prove it. Chelsea’s dad spoke about how his serious and studious daughter blossomed into an energetic (still studious) young woman after she met Bill; and Bill’s dad gave the wise advice of practicing “Yes, Dear” right away in marriage. The welcome prayer before their dinner was a family tradition from Chelsea’s dad’s side where the family holds hands and sings their prayer. All of these special moments, memories, and traditions show not only a tested and true love between Chelsea and Bill, but they show a solid foundation with friends and family who believe in them as individuals and as husband and wife.

There was never an absence of laughter and joy. The celebration was joyful and perfect, and we were honored to be a part of their day! Enjoy these favorites~
