Some love stories don't begin with a perfect first date. ❤️
Anna & Craig met on Christian Mingle while living on opposite sides of the country. After months of talking, Craig finally flew out to meet her... and promptly came down with COVID.
Instead of the exciting adventures they had planned, Anna spent those first days caring for him while he recovered.
And somehow, that told them everything they needed to know.
Because their joy was never found in what they were doing—it was found in simply being together.
This past Saturday, I had the honor of officiating their intimate Christian wedding at Lago Mar in Fort Lauderdale, a place that holds special meaning for them and a place where they found peace together long before they exchanged vows.
Surrounded by family, the ocean, and God's presence, they promised to continue building a marriage rooted in faith, commitment, and love.
As an officiant, moments like these remind me what marriage is truly about.
Congratulations, Anna & Craig. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your beautiful beginning. ❤️
