It’s not very often that I make my way to the Midwest or east coast for weddings– but when I do, I always meet the kindest most genuine people. Jessica and Andrew’s day at thorn crown chapel in eureka springs was one I’ll forever be grateful to have been a part of– for so many reasons!

The morning of their wedding was the first time that I met these two, and Jessica welcomed me with open arms and the MOST excited hello, as if she was seeing an old friend; and there feeling is so great when you’re walking into a room full of strangers, that this job encompasses so much.

Their day was beautiful. The slightest breeze on the sunniest afternoon– where they got ready at the The Crescent Hotel, shared private vows on a tucked away trail as leaves were falling, got married in one of the coolest chapels (and most famous) chapels in the US– and then celebrated with family and friends on private property against the riverbed.

Not only did I get to spend this day with them, but we got to spend the next evening canoeing on the lake, as the rain came down– true notebook style if you ask me!? Not only was this fun, but it was so memorable because their first date was canoeing just as well. Truly such a special evening!!

Surround yourself with people like Andrew and Jessica. Passionate and kind hearted; and welcoming to everyone who crosses their paths.
