Happily Ever After... Our Wedding Journey
11:00 am
As we wrap up our magical mid-week in Eureka Springs, we’re holding close not just the vows we made—but the journey we’ve shared over the past two years. Despite our age difference, our love has deepened in ways we never imagined. We’ve learned, healed, and grown beside each other—and now we walk forward, hand-in-hand, into the next chapter. We’re so grateful for everyone who shared this experience with us—whether in person or in spirit. From Crescent Spring to vintage portraits, cozy dinners to scenic train rides, this has been more than a wedding. It’s been a celebration of life, love, and transformation. As we check out of our beautiful BnB, we know our “Happily Ever After” is just beginning. With love as our compass, we look forward to a future full of light, laughter, and deep joy.
