If we told you that Josh and Erin were good friends, we’d be selling them short. We haven’t known them more than a year…but sometimes people enter your life unexpectedly and change the way you think about things…and in this case… Josh and Erin changed the way we thought about friendship. They flipped our definitions upside down and pulled out our vulnerability, our schedules, our past, our beliefs…and said..”let’s do this together..”
…and to be honest…it was uncomfortable…and we really didn’t know how..
Until we woke up in Cleveland, OH on the top floor of Josh’s childhood home….where the floors creaked like the house was trying to tell stories of it’s past….but it didn’t have to. The stories were written all over the house in pictures, on chalkboards, on paper notes, handmade gifts from family, and the revolving door of Siscilian Aunts and Uncles looking for more pasta sauce….. it felt like home… and we began to understand a little bit more about what Josh and Erin meant by “doing life together…”
If there’s a quick way to get to know someone…spend a wedding day with their family and you’ll learn just about everything you ever wondered….and let us tell you…
Josh and Erin are blessed.
We’ve never witnessed two families so close, so intentional, and so focused on what marriage stands for….so we decided to let them speak for us…using their own words…addressed to Josh and Erin…
This day was so much more than two people confessing their love and commitment…it was about two families being brought together…it was about community…it was about love filling up and spilling out…
see for yourself….and turn up your volume.
