Most couples have weathered their fair amount of storms by the time they get married.  And most expect that the years ahead will hold challenges. But its a rare couple who already knows firmly and solidly just how much they can handle together because they’ve already been tested. Kristin & Andrew are that couple.  Halfway thru planning their wedding, Kristin was diagnosed with cancer.  Suddenly, plans for a honeymoon and decisions about which cake flavor to serve were replaced with dates for chemotherapy and adjusting to a whole new normal.  They postponed their wedding a year – hoping that would be enough time for Kristin to be better, for the storm to have passed.  Luckily, it was.  They had a gorgeous wedding day, one filled with sunshine, laughter and all the joyous things it should be filled with.  And underneath it all was an unwavering strength that didn’t exist a year ago.  A strength that only comes from weathering a storm together.
