Hannah and Jordan married last Saturday in a beautiful ceremony at Scottsville Baptist Church followed by a fun celebration at 3M Farms.

I’m usually an outside girl. Doesn’t matter if it’s heat, rain, or snow – we try to find a way, but last Saturday, it was just a perfect day to enjoy the beautiful interior of SBC. It was HOT. But even the heat didn’t stop the sweetness of Hannah and Jordan’s letters to each other. They each read them out loud for the video; I was more than impressed and wiped a couple of tears too. Hannah and Jordan have the most genuine love for each other, and the words they wrote would touch any heart. One line that stood out to me from Hannah’s letter to Jordan was when she promised to pray with him and for him. And Jordan told Hannah that she completed something in him that he didn’t even know he was missing. Those letters are one of many beautiful moments that I’ll always remember from the Amburgey wedding.

Life just has a way of completing us in the most unsuspecting moments. If you have followed Hannah and Jordan’s story, you know that they met at Campbellsville, and both are music majors. I’ve watched and had the joy of listening to Hannah’s musical talents, and I’m not surprised that she has found someone who also finds one of life’s greatest joys in making melody. Their joy was evident when I did their engagement session, and that was amplified even more when June 12th came. Jordan’s tears as he watched his beautiful bride walking down the aisle, and the way Hannah smiles up at him are all the proof any of us need to know they have built a love that truly completes each other.

I’ve known Hannah’s family since I’ve been in Allen County. Her mother, Anne, and I both have been friends and school counselors for years, and we both have just retired. I’ve been to more than one conference with her, and one thing that has always been so apparent is her love for her girls and her whole family. The years have flown by, and this is the third Vinson wedding I’ve been blessed to photograph. Watching Hannah’s older sisters and their children just made my day complete last Saturday. I love how Hannah adores them and they her, not to mention their new uncle. Not every person is great with kiddos, and that’s ok, but I always think that those who are have a blessed ability. When we all think back to our childhood, we have a favorite aunt or uncle, or a grandparent , who went above and beyond. They believed in us no matter what, and we wanted to make them proud. I think this is exactly where Hannah and Jordan are with their niece and nephews on both sides. Family is everything. No family is perfect, and sometimes folks have to create their own families, but we all need that connection to ground us, to help us through the trials of life.

Hey you two, you are an amazing couple!! I hope you never lose your zeal for life, music, church, your families, and each other. I already knew it, but after listening to your friends and family speeches, I know that my intuition was right. You were each made for each other. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your day, and I hope your memories of your lovely wedding day only fade with the beautiful memories you will make as your life moves forward. Love and blessings, Pat
