Couple: Chris & Sarah

Sarah is truly an incredible human being. Life has thrown her curveballs but each time she has come back stronger and happier than ever. Her amazing story is chronicled in this article from her CrossFit gym, which made my admiration for her grow all the more. Their wedding was originally set for July but because of a last-minute Navy deployment, the day was rescheduled for this winter – and it couldn’t come soon enough!

Sarah, determined and strong, trained for months to be able to WALK down the aisle with her dad. That moment is one I will never forget. With a smile on her face, Sarah stood up, leaned on the man who raised her, and walked to meet her groom. Chris, caught between tears and unspeakable joy, waited for his bride at the end of the aisle.

Besides the incredible emotions that ran throughout the day, the wedding was simply stunning from start to finish. Keen Weddings knocked it out of the park with design and planning, and the burgundy theme was perfect for Christmas. Red roses, greenery, and the background of the winery all came together to make the day that much more beautiful. Gold bottle centerpieces and a beaming bridal party.
