Our wedding video is here!

When planning the wedding, the first thing I hired was our photographers, obviously. The second thing I hired was our cinematographers. Then from there, I would figure out how to pay for the rest of the wedding once I had those 2 important vendors secured. :-) Having previously been a videographer myself in the past, I know how videography can often be overlooked and one of those things brides are quick to cut from their budget. But after viewing our wedding highlight video tonight about 10 times, and crying each time reliving the day, I am so glad we had our cinematographers to accompany our photographers. Each a unique artform in it's own way, it was exciting to see another perspective of the day in motion picture and sound.

A big thank you to our amazing cinematographers, 4120 Weddings, who we flew from San Diego to film our day. Be sure to check out their site here!

The song used in the video is called "Beloved" by Tenth Avenue North and was our first dance song. We just love the analogy it talks about as Christ as our bridegroom and the way He views us as His beloved.

To all of you who have been posting sweet words on Twitter & Facebook, and sending us such beautiful emails, thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your love. We are so thankful for each one of you and humbled by your inspiring words how God could use our love story to inspire you. If there's anything I continue to repeat, it's that true love IS worth the wait! I remember reading a book in college called "When God Writes Your Love Story" and all these years later, after many many years of waiting, watching this video tonight, I am just blown away at how He has exceeded my expectations.

God is so good and loves to reward His children when we are obedient to His word and rest in the peace that He has great plans for our lives. There's nothing more beautiful than the day that you place Jesus as the first love of your life, and then find someone who loves Him even more. As Stephen and I lifted our hands in worship during our ceremony as now husband and wife, and listened to the chorus of our loved ones behind us singing along, my heart melted at the small glimpse of how beautiful Heaven must be there worshipping Jesus in His presence. There is no greater love than that of our Lord and Savior and our greatest prayer is that you too can know the intimacy of His love as His beloved too.

Enjoy our video!  (Password: stephen)
