There are so many things that we could say about what we witnessed last weekend with Briana and Brandon. We saw an amazing community of people rally together to create an incredible day, we saw the culmination of what started out as a 3rd grade crush and a date at In-n-Out. But without a doubt, above all of that, we had the privilege to see two amazing people stand before one another and announce to the world what they both had already known for so long. They were each other’s everything…the half that made them whole.
Growing up at Rose Drive Church in Yorba Linda, it was the only fitting they begin a new chapter with one another in the church they called home. Brandon, with his vows coming straight from his heart, told Briana that she was all he’s ever wanted. And Briana, fighting back tears along with all her bridesmaids (you may recognize one), told Brandon he was her rock, and the most loving and tender man she can never be without.
I heard it said that marriage is a lot like color tv, once you experience it you can never imagine life in black and white.
Briana and Brandon, you both are so dear to Erin and I, may your marriage always be vibrant and filled with God’s love!
We loved so many of their images, but here are some of the moments we couldn’t wait to share with you.
