Traditions actually mean something when you take things to heart. And even though J and I’s very traditional Jewish wedding took place on a retreat center an hour out of town tucked away in the countryside, everything about it was incredibly heartfelt and meaningful and moving. It was a large wedding with many many guests – and yet there was a sense of intimacy throughout the day as everyone who was there were connected to the lives of the bride and groom. J and I were faithful to their beliefs and the principles they hold important in their lives in all the aspects of planning the wedding day and that’s what made it so beautiful – the authenticity. There are so many more adjectives I could use to describe their incredible, high energy and joyous day but I’ll leave the images to do the storytelling. Enjoy!
