It’s true that I cry at every wedding, but I cried a whole lot at this one. I’ve known Chelsea for 9 years, in fact, her wedding day was our 9th anniversary as friends, to the very day! We met on a rainy day at Trinity Western University. The rain surprised us while we were in class, and Chelsea had come unprepared with no umbrella (we were both Alberta girls living in BC for the first time, we’ve since learned our lesson!). I showed Chelsea all the back routes through various dorms that kept us as dry as possible on our way back to our rooms. We became fast friends that day as we ducked from overhang to overhand, laughing at our vain attempts to stay dry.

Flash forward to this day, and I could barely contain my joy and tears. Chelsea is grace and joy embodied in a person. She is pure light, and her happiness means the world to me. None of us are perfect, but there is something about Chelsea’s beautiful soul that just deserves the most beautiful story, and I felt like this wedding day was the beginning of the most magnificent story of all. So yes, I was a ball of emotions throughout this gorgeous day, but my tears were welcomed amongst all the other friends and family who felt the exact same way as me.

If you know Chelsea, you also know that she has impeccable taste (Adam is excellent proof of that). This also extended to their wedding day. Every last detail was carefully chosen to represent the two of them. Adam brought his rebellious musician side into the details with his delicate skull and cross-bone pocket square. Chelsea had her dress custom designed. The day was filled with the most beautiful city views, stained glass details, and gorgeous blooms. I cannot fathom a more beautiful day for two beautiful people. Especially two people so madly in love. The “stare at each other across a room” kind of love. The kind of love that sneaks forehead kisses into every spare moment. The kind of love filled with giggles of joy and excitement. These two have it.
