This is a sweet story for so many reasons. I was honored that Chelsea asked me to be part of her special day with Eric. I have known Chelsea for a long time. She and my Annie and three other precious girls have been best friends since middle school. They called themselves the fab five back then and still do. There were many sleepovers and late night walks on the farm over the years. When they graduated high school and went their separate ways they made it a point to stay in each other’s lives. They have lived out intentional friendship and in doing so they have created a bond that will likely last a lifetime. I am so blessed to know courageous and beautiful young women.
I loved hearing Chelsea and Eric’s love story. They met at Winshape, a Christian camp in Rome Georgia where they both worked. They both smiled as they recalled that moment. As time progressed they began arranging their duties at camp so they could spend more time talking and getting to know each other. It wasn’t long before they knew something very special was happening. It was a perfect match. Both of them love the outdoors and an active lifestyle. Both of them love Jesus and people. It is pure joy to be with them.
Eric and Chelsea elected to do a first look, enabling them to see each other privately before the ceremony and then have photographs taken. This alleviated some stress for them and for their guests who would have been waiting a long time in the summer heat after the ceremony when the bride and groom usually do photos. I highly recommend this!
Their wedding was beautiful and so much fun. Both of their families were such a delight.
Oh and the flower girl? She’ll be famous one day. What a beautiful precious child!
Thank you Wegesin and Latimer Families for allowing me to be part of such a lovely day. Blessings and best to you Chelsea and Eric!
