Happy Saturday and Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone!! So excited to share a love filled wedding day that is SO fitting of Valentine’ Day. A person could not ask for a more down to earth, caring and compassionate couple who are the kind that makes every jealous. Not only are they both teachers for littles, but they have the most awesome and patient personalities. They genuinely love and respect each other, their families, friends and strangers alike. I honestly don’t think you could ever run into these two and not see them with big smiles on their faces.

So get ready for a massive posting of pictures! Because their wedding was just too much fun not to share as many details and I could:)

The day started at Ale’s parents home…with big windows in the living room, it opened up the room so bright for Ale to get dressed and wow, she looks wonderful! And shoes! Oh yes…of course, let’s not forget shoes. Loved that they were sparkly too, ekkk! Her feet are so tiny…otherwise, I would have been tempted to toss them on and strut around in them myself for a wee bit.

All the girls were such good sports and did all they could to help out. Mom had the hard job of lacing up Ale, but she was a champ! And as a side note to Ben, Mom looks absolutely great, so your wife is going to be a bombshell for many years…watch out, you might have some jealous boys there.

Don’t worry Ben, you ain’t bad yourself:)

The men…well…are men. And for their lunch…it was donuts. LOL. But they had a good time getting ready and I know Ben was super excited to see Ale for the first time in her dress. He even kept trying to get me to show if a picture of her before they had their first look. Nice try.

And the moment is in!! Loved loved loved Ben’s reaction when seeing Ale. I can’t help but smile from ear to ear seeing this and remembering the moment, so I can imagine that Ben won’t forget so easily either.

Time to bring out the party! Beautiful wedding party and what great people in general. It was a little windy and chilly but all the girls were toughing it out and went out for it anyways. And even with heels digging into the grass, it didn’t stop us.

After a bit of fun and excitement…here comes the big one…ceremony time. Will have to say, Ale’s choice of music for her ceremony was tip top awesome. So modern, elegant and romantic. Their good friend presided over the ceremony and wow, you can tell that he was passionate towards this couple and wanting their happiness. He did a fantastic job and really sucked me in! I felt more like a part of their wedding, their bond and their union than in any other moment. He really captured the meaning of marriage and Ben and Ale’s love for each other. Very commendable!

Taadaaaa!!! Husband and Wife! Yeah!

After a short ride to the hall…FIRST time I got to chauffeur my bride and groom!!! It was pretty special! Don’t worry, I got them safely to the hall. And they even had plenty of time to take a peek at their beautifully decorated room and the delicious cake they picked out.

A very touching first dance, followed by a mash up by Ale and Dad! Oh my…was it awesome to bear witness to such a wonderful dance. Starting to wish I would have flipped over to video and captured the whole thing. But don’t worry, Mom was right on top of that! You can watch her Video of the Dance HERE.

An absolutely fun time and evening with them. We ended with taking a moment to run up to the hotel room and do some playful jumping on the bed and some right outside as we prepare to end the evening. So so so very happy for Ale and Ben as they journey together in life as husband and wife. Two amazing families have been joined together and these two are just right for each other. Wishing you guys all the best!!
