This was such an amazingly beautiful wedding with the sweetest couple. Sara & Tristen have an energy about them that you can't put into words. He is a semi professional baseball player in the minor leagues. It was the first wedding I attended that required sage smudging before anyone entered the ceremony space. How amazing is that! To top it all off it was down in the Florida keys!
