Mabel + Patrick – {Married}

It had been a long anticipated day.  We had two amazing engagement sessions here and here.  Finally their day had come!  And it happened on a perfect summer day!  Hot, but still PERFECT! =)

Our church can hold 400+ people, and it was jam packed during our ceremony.  There was just so much love, so much support, so much blessing, and so much joy.  All of these were converging on our lovely couple.  The ceremony was full of touching moments like this.  Honestly, I just can’t stop admiring these two after the ceremony.  They are just TOO SWEET!!

Before this post ends, let me share with you one of the most special moments for the day.  Not only are both Mabel and Patrick teachers, they also committed YEARS of their lives serving in the church’s youth ministry.  OK ok … they’re not that old. =P  But that makes their dedication and commitment to God and to their teens so much more treasurable.  And on this special day, they’re all here presenting the most meaningful gift to the their beloved counsellors…

Mabel and Patrick, from the deepest of my heart, we’re honoured to be invited to capture this very special moment of your life.  We truly wish you a very happy and blessed married life.  May God be your guide in every step of this new chapter of your love journey!  Love you BOTH!!

uhem … yes, we’re very serious in our attire while we’re working.  OK, just to clarify, Brian was NOT staring at the girls.  He was simply getting ready to get on stage. =)
