I overheard the gorgeous bride last night tell a friend that she had originally seen our flipbook at her prom. Being in business for 18 years sure does bring some sweet stories about how people find out about us. 💕
Last night was definitely a celebration to remember. Brittani and Hunter were surrounded by a room full of people who loved them and supported this marriage. Emerald City Band kept the dance floor packed, with guests taking breaks to get a drink and come make flipbooks.
At the end of the evening, I looked at the very front of the dance floor and saw the bride’s dad. Everyone around him was jumping around and dancing to the music, but he stood still and slowly turned around in a full circle. It was like a movie when the world is in full motion, but the character spins around in slow motion. You could tell that he was simply trying to absorb the momentous occasion and try to capture this moment in time into his memory. The band pumping energy into the crowd, his daughter and her new husband dancing beside him, being surrounded by the people who were most important to him in this world. ❤️
And I got choked up if I’m being honest. Not enough people stop and take a moment to look around in the middle of a wedding. It all goes by so quickly. From a parent’s perspective, this is the end of raising a child and the beginning of a new family. It’s a celebration with your tribe, the people who have been with you through thick and thin. What a beautiful moment in time to savor! I’m so glad I caught a glimpse of it.
Congratulations, Brittani and Hunter! Many blessings on your new marriage! 💕
