Megan + Anthony | Fabulous Wedding Under a Rainbow

(above) Megan's sisters share a comical laugh

I just love weddings! If there was a way to photograph weddings every day, I would do it. Witnessing nervousness turn into smiles can't be documented enough. My neighbor referred Megan and her mother to me while in a nail shop. When I spoke with Megan's mom, she forewarned me that Megan would be a gorgeous bride and could be the best looking bride I've ever photographed. Mom, you were right. Megan was stunning; heck all of her sisters are stunning. I forgot to mention that Megan looks identical to her mother.

I learn a lot from family members about other family members at weddings. Mom told me that Megan and Anthony has known each other since they were little tike's. She told me that Anthony had a crush on Megan as early as 13 years of age. Well, Anthony's wish came true and after a 10 year courtship, they became husband and wife on a hill under a rainbow. They chose their wedding location because Megan's grandparents - whom she adored - were buried not too far from the wedding venue. That afternoon a brief shower came and during their vows, the rainbow appeared just over the southeastern horizon. Family members and guests believed that Megan's grandparents were smiling upon their union. I couldn't help but be moved by such a special moment.

Megan and Anthony have a 6-year old daughter together who is full of energy and love for her parents.

Megan and Anthony, from Tailese and I both, we wish you God's continued blessing on your nuptials and union.
