Our Anniversary

Today is our 3rd wedding anniversary!  Johnnie and I met on June 22, 2007 and were married on December 13, 2008, surrounded by family and friends in Las Vegas, Nevada.  Why Vegas?  I'm from Pennsylvania, he's from Seattle, and we were living in Georgia so we decided to have a destination wedding in a fun location that family and friends wouldn't mind traveling to.  It was a wedding in Vegas, not a Vegas wedding.  Everything about our wedding was absolutely perfect and amazing, including the man I married :)

Our invitation

We found the most amazing Vegas wedding photographer, Chelsea Nicole, to do our engagement and wedding photos.  Chelsea is the sweetest person and did such an incredible job capturing our magical day!  All of the photographs below are by her.

We had a full wedding ceremony at the beautiful Guardian Angel Cathedral Catholic Church, which is just off of the Vegas Strip.

It took a little convincing for the priest to allow sabers in the church.  Walking down the aisle under the saber arch at the start and end of the ceremony was my favorite part,  next to the "you may now kiss the bride" part of course :)

I got a smack on the butt with a saber and a "Welcome to the Air Force, ma'am!" after this kiss :)

Can you get any luckier than to marry your best friend?

Last year for our 2 year anniversary, Johnnie arranged a surprise "Trash the Dress" photo session with our wedding photographer Chelsea Nicole!  Since Johnnie is a pilot, we went with an aviation theme.  It was so much fun and we love the photos!

It's been 3 incredible years and we still have a lifetime more.  There is nothing more perfect than sharing love and life with my best friend, my soul mate, and my greatest love.  Every day is an adventure and as long as we're together, I can't wait to see what will happen next.  

Happy Anniversary, Johnnie!  xoxo, Angela
