Have you ever seen the movie “Sweet Home Alabama”? One of my favorite movie quotes of all time is in that movie. Jake, in a moment of defeat, mumbles, “Nobody finds their soulmate when they’re ten. Where’s the fun in that right?” Since this movie is a complete and utter chick-flick, his statement is proven wrong when Melanie decides that she does belong in Alabama with him, kisses him in the rain on a beach and then marries him again that same night. (Southern girls don’t waste any time!)

There is something extra special about finding your soul mate when you are young. It’s almost as if it proves the magic. The magic that a soulmate is really something beyond our well-constructed boxes for how people should fall in love and who they should fall in love with. The magic doesn’t need age, it doesn’t need specifications, it doesn’t need location or luck, it is pure and innocent and deep. And that is why it seems so special when it happens young. Because it reminds us all that this type of thing is stronger than us.

Work it out gentlemen

I love this quiet moment…

This one was one of Julianna’s ideas :)

To celebrate this fabulous date, we bring you a sneak peak from our wedding on Friday. I can easily say that we have never seen a bride who was more excited to be married than Julianna and it was such a joy to capture her sheer bliss and love for her new husband. There’s a lot more to come, but until then enjoy these five favorites…
