Videos and pictures tell the best stories and this one’s ours. From July 2018 to forever, through faith, laughter, and love, God has written a story that even the stars stand still to witness ♾️.
Yes in the Rain
La Push. Rain whispered against the waves, soft and steady. The sky was silver, the ocean restless. He held her hand, heart pounding, the small box heavy in his pocket. They laughed as the drizzle turned to a downpour, hair damp, clothes clinging. Then he dropped to one knee, rain streaming down his face. “I wanted a place that felt like us,” he said. “Wild, real, and forever.” She covered her mouth, tears lost in the rain. “Yes,” she breathed. The ocean roared, thunder rolled, and for a moment the world was just them,two souls soaked in love, sealed by the storm. La Push would always remember the day she said yes in the rain.
A story written in the stars by God.
It all began in July 2018, not by chance, but by divine design. Two hearts, guided by faith, found each other under the vast sky that God Himself painted. What seemed like coincidence was, in truth, a chapter already written by His hand, a love story He had planned long before time began. From that moment on, every step, every challenge, and every joy became a reflection of His grace. Through laughter and lessons, through growth and prayer, they learned that love isn’t just about finding the right person, it’s about trusting the One who brings them together. Their bond became a living testimony that when God writes your story, no distance, no storm, and no season can undo what He has ordained. Now, as they stand beneath the same stars where it all began, they give thanks to the Author of their forever, the One who turned a simple moment into a miracle. God began it in July 2018. And His love will carry it through ♾️.

Venise Pierre
Bridesmaid
My name is Venise, and Jerry is not only my godfather but also my cousin. I first met Lauren at a birthday party, and she was around quite a bit after that. I knew she was dating my godfather well, even before they made it official, I kind of had a feeling. You could just tell she really cared about him. One moment that still makes me laugh is when my God Daddy had a little too much to drink, and Lauren was there nurturing him so upset that he kept drinking, but you could tell it was all out of love! 😂 That’s when I knew their bond was something special. A fun fact about me is that I play the saxophone and can read music, and I’m also a future nurse, following my dream of helping others and making a difference in this world.
