LAUREN + EMANUEL
Metro Detroit Michigan wedding photography at the Grosse Pointe War Memorial provided by Kellie Saunders and her team of the best Michigan wedding photographers.
When two people are meant to be - it's inevitable. The stars, the universe, god - whatever you may believe in - it brings them together. When I first met Lauren and Emanuel I knew they were brought together by a higher power. Lauren beamed when Emanuel spoke, and when he reached for her hand she blushed.
Let's hear what Emanuel has to say about Lauren in his own words. "When I first set eyes on her, I was blown away by her beauty. As we enjoyed each others company on our first date, I realized how big of a heart and caring she has. I felt so comfortable around her and felt she was easy to talk to. I was so eager to spend more time with Lauren, from that day on we have never stopped talking. Lauren is the woman that I've dreamed about for so long. When I returned from being away for a month on military duty and we were very excited and anxious to see each other after spending only a few hours together, you have to get the sense of "this will be just fine." That is the exact feeling I felt with Lauren. The moment I could tell her about everything in my life, my childhood, my pain, my troubles, my sadness, my happiness, my concerns and her response is "what can I do to help" that's how I knew Lauren is the one for me. You only find someone once in your lifetime that makes you smile. Someone who checks up on often to see if you are okay, who watches out for you and wants the very best for you, you don't let them go. Keep them close and don't take them for granted. A person like that is hard to find. You are my rock, my soul, my everything in between. You are a blessing and I am blessed that we are in each other's lives."
And what Lauren feels about Emanuel, "What can I say about my Emanuel. My Emanuel makes my world. I prayed for this man before I even knew him. He restored my faith that there is a man out there who could give me everything I needed in a person and wanted. He came into my world in an instant and never left. From the day we met in person we never went one day without communicating and only spend time a part when its for work. Just when I least expected it he showed up. When God makes someone specifically for you, everyone else and you can feel and see it. God made him specifically for me. I feel it, I see it and I know it."
As they said their vows there weren't many dry eyes in the room. Their hearts were full and so was mine. I was so happy to witness these two combine their families and start their lives together. They danced the night away at the Grosse Pointe War Memorial with friends and family. Join me in congratulating them and take a look at some of my favorite photos from their big day!
