It is always fun filming the wedding of a couple I’ve known for years.
I met Paul at Texas A&M, but we didn’t reconnect until late 2014, when I was sitting in my church in Dallas, saw him across the room, made eye contact, and then pulled increasingly stupid faces at each other for the next half hour. Since then Katelyn and Paul have both become good friends to Rachel and me.
A Few Things About This Couple
First, they say Rachel and I are “too hipster” for them, whatever that means. If we’re too hipster for them, then they are definitively too fun for us. They travel. They are ferociously competitive with each other. They love board games. They’re into Pokemon Go, which I’d argue is important for any relationship.
Rachel says we have a couple crush on them, and I’d agree.
They Put Jesus At The Centre Of It
Katelyn and Paul share an incredible love for Jesus, and they made a deliberate choice to make Him the centre of the day rather than a component of it. He was in their prayerful notes to each other, in their vows, in the worship during the ceremony, and in a genuinely exuberant reception afterward.
Their love for the Lord is reflected in how they love each other. You can see it in the film.
Rachel and I are so thankful we got to film this wedding, and more thankful still for their friendship. If you two are reading this, we need to go play more Pokemon Go.
If you’re getting married and would like us to film it, please reach out. We’d love to talk to you.
