Mike & Meredith Get [Married]… and featured!

Mike and Meredith were one of my favorite couples last year.  With both of them currently serving as officers in our nations Army there were so many amazing things they wanted their wedding to be about, and the main one was honoring the legacy of military service in their families.  After meeting at Fort Bragg while Meredith was finding a place to live, they were pretty much hooked on each other from the get go.  I remember meeting with them initially, and having the “what if” conversation.  You see, Mike was scheduled to be deployed soon, but with no viable date in their hands all of their plans were tentative at best.  When I got the email about Mike being deployed before they could get married I was saddened, but I knew that postponing was the best thing in the long run.  What we ended up with was this beautiful day in the middle of January (if you can believe it), with enough warmth that everyone was comfortable outside, and enough sunshine to create some magic.  I held onto this post for the longest time, and greatly appreciate all of the vendors not blogging this either.  The result was a gorgeous two page spread in this quarter’s edition of Carolina Bride.  I’m hoping that as Mike and Mer are currently serving our country overseas, that we somehow find a way to get a copy in their hands!  Enjoy!
