Let me start by saying that I adore my sister-in-law. She and I had an instant connection from the moment we met. We are, indeed, kindred spirits. She and my husband share a close friendship, and I know that she had a tremendous influence on him when they were growing up. I am so grateful to have her in my life, not only as a sibling, but also as a dear friend.
Her husband is one of those easygoing guys whose always a joy to be around...good-natured and laid back. Truly, they are two of my favorite people, and we have shared many good times with them.
Two years ago, they moved from Brooklyn, where they had lived for several years, to St. Louis. Now, they only live 2 miles away and we love having them close by.
Their wedding ceremony was held at my husband's family farm and the reception was in a tent in his parents' backyard.
The wedding celebration was so beautiful. A good friend of theirs was their officiant. They wrote their own ceremony and vows. They even planted a tree as a symbol of their love. It was truly one of the most intimate and personal ceremonies I have seen....a true celebration of their relationship and their love for one another.
The weather was perfect.
My sister-in-law was just gorgeous.
My husband was a proud man of honor.
And Liam was beyond adorable in his three piece suit.
The night ended with a bonfire and s'mores. What more could you ask for?
A lovely day honoring two wonderful people. Congratulations Mollie and Jon! We wish you a lifetime of joy and happiness.
