Jared and Catherine were married on March 16, 2019 in Lexington, KY at Hope Presbyterian Church in Lexington, KY with a reception at The Barrel House At Grade Reserve. This wedding had so many sweet and special moments (as all weddings do). I loved the elegance of the long black bridesmaid dresses and the groomsmen suits and the grooms suit having black trim. But what is even more special about this wedding are the small details. Catherine’s dad passed away when she was 8 years old. Catherine wanted her wedding band to be her dads wedding band and I think it’s perfect. The words “I love you” were engraved on his band when Catherine’s parents were married. There are a few pictures of a pearl necklace. Catherine’s dad started the pearl necklace when she was born. He was going to add a new pearl to the necklace every year for her birthday. When he passed away Catherine’s uncle continued the tradition of adding the pearls and surprised Catherine with it the week of the wedding, all these years and she had no idea he was doing that. When she told me all these things I most definitely had tears in my eyes. What sweet sweet things to hold on to from her dad. The last thing that I will always remember from this wedding is the pure emotion from the groom during the ceremony. Jared and Catherine didn't do a first look so when he saw his bride walking down the aisle the water works began and they continued thru the ceremony. It was definitely sweet and felt by all. I hope you all enjoy this sweet day as much as I did.
