These two… Frank and Val are such a wonderful couple! They met during lunch in high school (cute cute), they’ve been through so much together. They love to travel, and they are so kind, so warm, so genuine. Marty and I love watching the family and friends of the bride and groom on a wedding day, because there are so many beautiful emotions happening all at once. But this group of people exceeded that, times a million. All day long there were kisses, tears, bear hugs, toasts, more hugs, laughter, more hugs. This was an incredible gathering of some very special people… and I think that says so much about Frank and Val. Top it off with some of the sweetest speeches I’ve yet to hear at a wedding, and you’ve got a fantastic wedding day. So, capturing all of that with our cameras? What a sincere pleasure it was.
