“You are so beautiful to me. I wish for one moment that you could see what I see what I see when I look at you. When I gaze at you, I see a treasure ready to be discovered, a princess ready to shine, and a bride ready to be loved. When I look at you.. I love what I see!” Sheri Rose Shepherd
My latest project has been working on side with my friend Rashad, who takes amazing wedding photos. Check out some of Rashad's work here. I love this latest project to help give great ideas to design for wedding photos for the bride to be. As, I am doing this project, I see part of me as a bride one day.
The other day, I was organized in storage closet and found my mother's wedding box of memories. In her wedding box which I found my mom's wedding dress, wedding cake knives, wedding bead rope, wedding book (empty), my mom's veil, wedding heart shaped pillow and her wedding album. I was in awww mode to find these special treasure items because I felt like I was going back in time. As, I picked up my mom's wedding dress from the 70's, I felt like one day, I will use part of her wedding dress in some kind of design in my wedding dress or hair accessory. This was a special day for my parents because they waited 5 years to get married in 1972 and then they spend 36 years together married. My parents kept their promised to each other to be married until death do them apart. As, I look at the wedding pictures and see more than the vintage wear from 70's but a promised to each other for life. Life didn't happened for my parents until their wedding day. My mom said to me that other day, “Being a married couple build a good life for us with a home, our children, careers, and being together.” Mom cried because she missed her husband. My mom met my dad at the age of 16 years old. One day, my mother will meet her prince in heaven (Jesus) and her husband, one day. Marriage is more than wedding reception and everything else about the wedding. The important part of the wedding is the ceremony between the two couple. Life happens between the two couple. Marriage is about two coming together become one for life.
“For your Royal Husband Delights in your beauty: honor him, for his is your Lord”,Psalm 45:11
