Sean and Christina are one of the lucky couples. They’re one of the few pairs that meet when they’re young and know that they’ll grow old together. Sean and Christina met in high school. They instantly shared a love for movies, laughing and just being with around each other.
As their relationship grew, their lives together continued. They attended the University of Illinois and some thought maybe that high school love would fade as they went to college. Nope. Sean and Christina fell deeper in love as they became the adults they are now. They continued sharing the same passions and even gained a few new ones like their fur baby, Mole (head over to their engagement pictures to see cute photos of him!).
On their wedding day, Sean and Christina were just like those giddy high school teenagers in love. They incorporated their love for movies into their wedding decorations. Favorites like The Proposal and Good Will Hunting were used as a way to label their reception tables. As a tasty treat for their guests, a snack bar filled with all different types of delicious popcorns. Sean and Christina laughed and cried as their family members spoke of their favorite memories. Christina’s sister explained how the wedding was more of a formality as Sean had been a part of their family for a long time.
Speaking of family, one of my favorite moments of the day was while Christina was putting on her dress. As a surprise to her mother, Christina wore two of her grandmother’s hair clips. When her mom realized that Christina had included these as her something old, her eyes welled up with tears. The little details like that one are sometimes the ones that mean the absolute most.
Sean and Christina. I love the two of you. It has been such a joy being part of your wedding planning process and even more so your wedding day. I am so happy that you found each other almost ten years ago. I hope you’re having a wonderful time on your honeymoon!!!
