“We would absolutely say that a small, intimate “We would absolutely say that a small, intimate wedding was just so magical and did not feel rushed. We always recommend this now to our friends.” – @alexxwadee & @yahhbisshh ⁠ ⁠ We'll never get tired of seeing couples do things their own way, and Alex and Chris leaned all the way in.

The laughter, the tears, the joy, the love.⁠ ⁠ So what if, instead of asking “how can I change my body", you asked… “how do I want to feel?” ⁠ ⁠ Read more via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A joyful outdoor wedding moment by a riverside, featuring a bride standing beneath a simple wooden arbour draped with soft white fabric and greenery. She wears a white gown with lace detailing and holds a bouquet, smiling brightly alongside three bridesmaids dressed in matching teal blue dresses.
