Ovation Chicago Wedding, Patrick & Kaleigh, Chicago IL
There wasn’t a dry eye in the room when Kaleigh’s sister Bryal finished her speech. I knew as soon as I heard it, I wanted to incorporate it into Patrick and Kaleigh’s wedding blog. While I could have easily included the entire speech, I choose to share with you all my favorite part of it.
“You are very special and unique in your own way, and I never want you to change. Stay true to yourself and never give up on you heart, because you dream with your heart not your head. Anything is possible if you believe in yourself and in your dreams.
You are both like Belle and Jasmine combined, because you like to read, and you see the good in people, you don’t judge a person by the cover of the book, and you have a big heart to match with everything you are. When I see you with Pat I see you smile so big, and it makes me really happy for you both.
Pat you are strong, brave, willing to do new things, caring, sensitive, and so much more. My advice for you Patrick is to make sure that she is happy everyday, because when she smiles it will brighten up your day. Always be by Kaleigh’s side forever and always and to love her endless days and forever more.”
-Bryal
