Her best moment: “The ceremony. It was so personalized by our deacon. He is a friend of the family so he spoke a lot about our families and us. I also loved being able to dance and knowing that I was married to Rob.”
His best moment: “Seeing Courtney walk down the aisle—she looked so beautiful.”
What they would have done differently: “We would have spent more time talking to our guests at the reception.”
Advice to others: “Stop every hour or so on your wedding day and remind yourself to enjoy it and soak it all in because it goes by way too fast. Just enjoy it and don’t stress.”
Wedding song: “Here and Now” by Luther Vandross. “We love every word of that song, and it was so perfect.”
