Okay friends, let me tell you a bit about Joe and Brooke. Well first – let me say this. One of the GREATEST parts about my job is getting to know & walk alongside my couples through such an incredible season of their lives. I love looking back on where it all began – an email in my inbox – a coffee or skype chat as almost total strangers; to dear sweet friends. The evolution of this process is so amazing and it’s just such a joy to look back on! All that to say, I remember the night I skyped Joe & Brooke last year, and man – it’s been such an incredible journey with them. These two are tender, full of joy, and abundantly caring. I’m really not exaggerating when I say that I have the BEST couples. You know you’ve lucked out when give they you a seat at their reception with FAMILY. Like – talk about going above and beyond. Brooke is such a beautiful light and I love seeing the way her and Joe radiant with one another. Their day was an absolute gift and I’m so excited to share a little peek here on the blog today!!

Joe & Brooke – thank you for trusting me with this part of your story! It means the world and I can’t believe you two are MARRIED!! I’m so excited for all that’s to come for you guys!! Y’all make the greatest team! <3

Much love,

Jessica Lauren
