Our first wedding of the season, guys (ya, we’re just a little bit backed up with the blog posts). And it happens to be one that is incredibly close to our hearts. These two wonderful people knew each other in middle school, but didn’t connect until later in life, thanks to a little matchmaking scheme by yours truly. As individuals, Mike and Christina are the best kind of people, and we’ve had the gift of their friendship before becoming a couple for many years. As a team, their radness has only multiplied, they share an incredibly deep love, they’re considerate, strong, ambitious, inspiring, adventurous, and have created one hell of a beautiful family. Riding the wild ride that is parenting with these two (our boys are 5 months apart) has been a friggin hilarious pleasure, and one of the most precious gifts for us as we try to find our stride as parents, while keeping in touch with the people we once were pre-child. Life is just all around better with Mike + Christina as a part of it, we’re so lucky to have them in ours. And their recent wedding in Kauai couldn’t have been more perfect (even with the tropical storm that blew through). Here’s our (super long) take on their awesome celebration.
