For nine years, I’ve had the honor of standing in the quiet before the aisle walk, the deep breath before “I do,” the champagne pop that sounds like a starting gun for forever.

It’s a living, breathing story unfolding in real time. My job is to preserve it exactly as it felt. The nervous hand squeezes. The belly laughs. The mascara-streaked hugs. The way your partner looks at you when they think no one else is watching.
