these two… how can you forget them? I secretly shot their proposal and blogged it several months ago. I’m happy to say that this time, I didn’t hit my face on a table or act like a nervous wreck. Whew! Engagement sessions are a lot easier than secretly shooting a proposal! If you haven’t seen that post, you can read it HERE and you should, because it will give you a little background on this amazing couple. I was Josh’s neighbor in college and Mandy was one of my roommates senior year. I’m sure you’re thinking “Gosh, how many roommates does she have?!”. I had quite a few and we’re all super close. However, Mandy has a special place in my heart.
We hung out some when she was a freshman and I was a sophomore….. then we ended up having “special time” every week (don’t laugh at the name, we just started calling it that and it stuck!). When Mandy moved into the Middle House my senior year, I wasn’t just excited to have a new awesome roomie, but I was also getting a roommate that understood what it was like to be dating someone for over 5 years! We watched our relationships with Michael and Josh go through really amazing phases and then some hard times as well. I needed her friendship so much and her presence in my life during college was such a gift. Mandy has a heart of gold and she’s one of the sweetest girls I know… and I’m not just saying that. You just wait until you see the comments for this post. Everyone loves these two.
Josh and Mandy are just an incredible couple and their marriage is going to be such a blessing to so many people. If you don’t know what I mean by that, let me explain. We were created for this. Marriage is God’s idea and when two people that love the Lord, like Mandy and Josh, decide to commit to be a team for LIFE….awesome things happen. Josh and Mandy are best friends and have been for years and years… I’m so excited to watch them start this new phase of life together and enter the “old married people club” with the rest of us:). I’m kidding, we’re not old…. not yet. But I’m actually excited to look back 20 years from now and remember how exciting this phase of life was for all of us. I’m so honored to be a part of this!!! Josh and Mandy, you truly are a one of a kind couple and I mean that in the BEST way. You make others happy just by being around them and that’s such a gift! You know how excited I am about the wedding so I won’t waste time exclaiming that again:). Love you both enjoy these images!! I have some new all time favs in this post!!!!
