I love weddings at peoples homes. They are so intimate and lovely, and to have one on New Year’s Eve seems like the PERFECT way to celebrate a new year. So on December 31st, I found myself at Rickell and Anthony’s home, full of children, friends, family, and 3 adorable kittens as we prepared to take their 16 year relationship to the next level!
When Rickell first contacted me, I was already finished booking for the year. I thought, there is nothing that can convince me to take on another wedding. Well, that was before Rickell. I loved talking to her about her family and her love of Anthony and all they had been through together. After that, it was pretty much a no-brainer.
Rickell was getting ready upstairs with family, and Anthony was moving from room to room, setting everything up downstairs. Finally it was time, and since they couldn’t get the music to work, everyone sang here comes the bride as she descended the staircase. Way better! She was very emotional and I could tell how moved they both were as they said their vows, and shared in a unity candle ceremony. Afterwards they joyously kissed, and I watched their kids come up to hug them and all share in the moment. Congratulations Anthony and Rickell! I’m so happy that you found me and that I got to share in such a beautiful moment. Happy new year and so many more!
