We Pic'd Our Photographer!

We booked our photographer & videographer! We're very excited with our decision to go with Kreativ Imaging. Our guy, Kristofer, is very creative, professional and offered us the best bang for our buck, so to speak. We were very impressed with his style and his passion for photography--creative photography.

Another nice aspect is that Kreativ Imaging is based only a few miles down the road, so consulting with our photographer won't be too problematic or much of a drive.

We're very excited with our choice and we believe he will capture the best moments of our special day.

We're still looking for a church, so hopefully we'll have something to announce about that very soon!

Remembering Loved Ones Lost...

On Sunday, Miah's grandmother passed away peacefully in the Hoehner home. She was 84 years young.

Before her passing, we were talking about doing some kind of remembrance for loved ones who would not be with us in person, but with us in spirit. We want to celebrate these lives, and while we are sad they could not be with us in person on our special day, we know they'll be looking down in delight, and for us that is very comforting. Now that Miah's grandma has passed, it's definitely something we feel strongly about doing.

We were thinking about putting up a small table somewhere in the reception hall with their pictures and perhaps a small, continuously-burning candle. Something simple, something to honor the family members we loved so dearly. We figure this is a great way to celebrate their lives, at the celebration of our marriage.

The quote from the Bible that sums it up best for us is this (and it happened to be Miah's grandma's favorite Bible verse):

"I thank my God upon every remembrance of you."
--Philippians 1:3

The Great Photographer Hunt

Yesterday, we met with three different photographers. A few weeks ago, we met with another. We've seen a lot of great work. We're narrowing down our search, and we think we've met the person who will capture our special day. We still have to meet with a couple more, but hopefully we'll have this taken care of soon!
