Erin + Matt : Married

Maybe it’s because I was there for their proposal…or because they are two of the most sincere people I’ve ever met…but Matt and Erin make my heart smile.  I know that sounds cheesy…but they just do.   When you spend time with them there is this undeniable bond that anyone can see.  I don’t know that I’ve ever seen two people fit together so perfectly…and so completely.  They are best friends…meant to be…two-of-a-kind.  However you say it the truth is simple…they are perfect for each other.   You can see the comfort they bring to each other and how perfectly content they are just being.  Together.

 

Their wedding day was no different.  All the nerves in the world couldn’t mask the excitement they had to to make this thing official.  To live life hand in hand…side by side and take on the world together.  Matt and Erin…I feel like old friends by this point.  🙂  Thank you so much for bringing me into your lives and allowing me to get to know a truly extraordinary couple.  Your life will be nothing short of remarkable…I just know it.  Tell Max I said hi.  🙂

They couldn’t get married without Max…so he made an appearance.
