Naomi & Andy’s love story began at a mutual friend’s wedding shower. After meeting and becoming inseparable from the beginning, Andy asked Naomi out with a love letter. It was fitting that when it came time to propose, Andy wrote out several little love notes as part of the unwrapping of the several boxes to get to the ultimate box with the ring nestled inside.
While their original plans had to be altered, they were able to have a huge wedding in their hearts thanks to live streaming. Because of Naomi & Andy’s strong religious beliefs, they held numerous heart-felt prayers. They held a prayer right before becoming husband and wife, had a joyous ceremony where great friends and pastors said prayers to welcome them as newlyweds, and had a prayer over their rings before placing them on one another’s fingers.
One of the loveliest parts about Naomi & Andy’s day was the fact that Naomi’s father was in attendance back to full health after beating cancer. From the first look with her father to the father-daughter dance, it was incredibly sweet and moving and something that will always be cherished.
Congratulations to Naomi & Andy!
