❤ Congratulations ❤
You were Stunning! Your husband is so handsome.
Do you think y’all will have any littles?
Congratulations you were so beautiful ❤
My daughter’s wedding was 6 months ago, her dress was almost exactly like yours with the sleeves, it fits perfectly no showing any cleavage and she was wearing my veil that her grandmother handmaded for me 40 years ago 😢so special 🩵
No wedding is 100% perfect but as you said the most important part is the couple who love and cherish each others 💞
Not available in my area
Sara Jane, thank u 4 sharing ur wedding. The bouquet touched my heart and I teared up. Beautiful!! I'm sure Colton thought u were the most beautiful girl and is so glad he snagged such a gem. May God bless u both always?❤❤
That is always!!!🙏
On my wedding day (21yrs ago) my mother gave me the best advice... no one knows what I have planned so don't stress when something doesn't go the way I want it to. We had several little things go wrong but no one knew. So now, that's the same advice I give to others who are about to get married.
You looked beautiful and everything looked fabulous. I wish you and your new husband many years of happiness.
@@drunknluv78 my sisters husband who passed away from covid in 2021 told her on their wedding day. It doesn't matter if the flowers don't match, the dresses don't look right all that matters is at the end of the day your husband and wife. I'm getting married July 13th this year and I am trying to live by his words. He's right and so are you none of that matters. What matters is your husband and wife and you get to life your life out with the one you have chosen.
@patriciafennell4242 i hope your wedding went awesomely! Congratulations!🎉
You looked looked absolutely stunning!😍After 31 years of marriage, the things that went “wrong” (we also dealt with a monsoon😂) are now the things that my husband and I still laugh about, treasure & we have great stories for our kids! Best wishes to you! 🥰💕🥂
I love this so much!! ❤
SO TRUE!
Congratulations to you and Colton, your such a beautiful couple and compliment each other perfectly.
We had a outdoor wedding on the river at my Sisters home with 30 lanterns that my sweet Brother- in-law ran around trying to keep lit as it poured so hard the tent collapsed. We still laugh and smile about that special day and even our young nephews said it was the best wedding they have been too. I’m from a big fun family and they made sure no big rain storm was going to ruin our special day. I pray you and Colton will be as happy as me and husband have been and that your blessed abundantly! Blessings from Utah ❤
It rained on our outdoor wedding as well, in East Flat Rock, NC about 1 hour south of Asheville. Everyone said it’s a sign of good luck… just celebrated 34 years of marriage. Congratulations!
Sarah, it’s good luck when it rains on your wedding day!
We should have enough luck to last a good 100 years : ) haha! The rain was wild. Thank you so much for watching!
That's not what Alanis Morissette said 😂 Just kidding
Yes good luck and rain😊
Rained bucket on our wedding day and we will be married 30 years this August!
Rained on my wedding too and this year will be our 35th anniversary. ☔️ ❤
The venue, the dress, the bride absolutely BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!! Thank you for sharing 💘💘💘💘💘💘
Am I getting married? NO Have I ever wanted to get married? NO. Did I watch the entire thing? YES 😂
If it rains on your wedding day, the Angels are crying with Joy and Happiness for you. I had a few crying on my big day.
Rain, snow, cloudy on my day.
There's a saying sbout rain on wedding day " Rain on your wedding day is good luck because it signifies that your marriage will last." As you know, a knot that becomes wet is extremely hard to untie - therefore, when you “tie the knot” on a rainy day, your marriage is supposedly just as hard to unravel - Hindu tradition says.
YOU LOOKED STUNNING
I had heard of rain being lucky but never the piece about the wet knot being difficult to untie! Love that
I was a wedding planner for 12 years & I have so many stories from over the years, but I what I wish is that every bride I ever worked with was as sweet & kind as you are. You really took everything that went wrong in stride & with a wonderful attitude. I always told my clients that the things that go wrong on your wedding day are the things that make the best stories! If you stay focused on why you are getting married (love), the details are just that- details. I am so happy for you & Colton. Thank you for sharing parts of your wedding with us. Sending you both so much love & light~ 💕✨💫
Gorgeous wedding and couple! Fun fact: Turkeys are a sign of prosperity and harvest. A symbol to count your blessings! The fact that two appeared was beautiful. Congratulations and many years of blessings to you two❤🙏🏾
Thank you for sharing your special day with us. Congratulations to you both. Your wedding was beautiful
Thank you so much!
Giving speeches during the rehearsal dinner is a great idea. I was the MOH and appreciated that my friend did that.
Oh how beautiful Sarah Jane! You were absolutely glowing and, in spite off all that happened, you married your best friend. ♥
Congratulations Sarah Jane! Everything was beautiful! Glad you honored your relatives who were no longer with you. They were with you! Didn’t know you were a twin! I have boy/girl twins too!
Awe I love that! Twinning 🤍 thank so much for your kind words.
Congratulations to you both !!! Your wedding was beautiful. God bless you both!!!❤️🙏💙
Congratulations! You looked stunning! I’ve been married 37 years and believe me, those regrets will turn into laughing good times when story telling later 🤗 while there’s no such thing as a perfect wedding, we certainly do dream about it all from childhood til you are an adult so it’s completely understandable that right now, it’s still a bit emotional….the best thing is you are married to the love of your life and I hope you two have a super blessed marriage together 🤍🤍🤍
I always feel like with any large event, you notice most of the issues but guests don't. Your wedding looked like a beautiful event!
Sara Jane... you were a beautiful bride! Colton was a gorgeous groom! As for the rain... when I was married in July 1988, it had not rained for weeks to where there was an actual drought. The day we married, it was hot, humid, and miserable. We were married in a church, BUT as soon as we exited the church, it poured cats and dogs! I mean, Mother Nature must have saved all the rain for my wedding day. Guess what?! Rain on your wedding day is a GOOD OMEN; HAVE BEEN married now for 36 YEARS! So if this is a true good luck omen as I've been told...your marriage will be long and happy! Best Wishes To You Both! Thank you for sharing your day with us!
I also married in July of 1988 (on the 23rd). I was in South Georgia and we are still married, also. There were hiccups to the wedding, but we, too, still laugh about those.
Awwww! When you talked about your dad and grandmas ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congrats on your wedding. Stuff happens so don't sweat it. The important thing is you married the love of your life. Be happy!
Beautiful Bride n Wedding ❤
Congratulations! We picked May to get married because we don't like the heat and that day (44 years ago!) it was 95!!! Forged in fire - we're still going strong. Wishing you a very happy marriage and future!
Our wedding day holds the record for that day June 17 1994 in Detroitvarea of Michigan. 99 degrees. Never thought that would happen.
No matter what happens on your wedding day, everyone will remember that you are married!
WOW everything was gorgeous!!!
Thank you for sharing 😊
Sara Jane you looked absolutely gorgeous.You will always have those beautiful memories of your wedding day. Congratulations and many blessings for a lifetime of happiness!❤
You were absolutely radiant! You were a beautiful bride! May the good Lord bless you and your husband for a lifetime.
I love that you included your Dad and Grandmothers. Sniffle. Congratulations. You and the wedding looked beautiful! I also am very emotional. Love the Taylor Swift addition. "Enchanted" is a beautiful song.
Congratulations on your wedding! Handsome couple! You looked stunning and everything looked tastefully exquisite! I find most times no one even realizes the mishaps that take place behind the scenes. I felt the exact same way about my dress and looking at pictures, I wish someone would have told me the dress was a little more revealing than I would have liked at the cleavage. My husband lost one of his cuff links; my maid of honor was late; the bridesmaids placed my veil on backwards and I realized just as they proceeded down the aisle but thankfully the attendant was able to fix it before my entrance!😅 I laugh now because in actuality, the day turned out beautiful despite all that happened and I was so thankful especially in hindsight…days before our wedding, there was a snowstorm but our actual day was sunny, 60+ degrees at the very end of December and the day after there was a blizzard! I always felt looking back that God was definitely watching over us that special day! Looking at your pictures, nothing looks out of place. Had you not told us, we’d never know because everyone and everything looked absolutely beautiful!! Prayers for many blissful moments and happiness as you start the rest of your lives together!🙏🏼🤍🎊
Of course you handled everything with grace and class! You look so much like your dad too❤ So beautiful how you incorporated him and your nana into your wedding. Beautiful wedding ❤
Your look on your wedding day looked amazing! ❤
Hi Sara Jane and Congratulations! What an absolutely amazing wedding!! You looked stunning and your dress was gorgeous! Colton is a super cutie too! I also loved all your personal and sentimental touches. So Beautiful! And that venue! Breathtaking! So sorry to hear about the bad weather. I know that must have been upsetting especially after all that planning. But you handled it like a champ focusing on what is really important. And like they say, it's not what happens to you but how you handle it and that reveals your true character and that "stuff" is what will make for a happy and successful marriage! God Bless and best wishes for every blessing! 🍾🍾❤❤😊😊
Thank you so much for your kind words! 💗 that was very very sweet.
Absolutely Beautiful Wedding . They say if it rains on your wedding day it means many Blessings are to come . Wishing you many many years of Blessings .
Beautiful wedding, beautiful bride and a beautiful venue. Thanks for sharing! Congratulations!
What a beautiful wedding! You were a gorgeous bride!
Congratulations!
You looked absolutely beautiful and what a gorgeous dress. Colton was so handsome in his tux! I wish you both a very happy and long life together, you are such a beautiful couple.
I would never have an outdoor wedding, because you can't really predict the weather. Our wedding , in 1989, was in May, in New Hampshire (even though we lived in California, but the most family lived in NH) and the weather turned out to be terrible. But every part of the wedding weekend was inside, except for getting to and from the church. Thankfully , it only rained when everyone was inside. The reception was at a beautiful hotel, and that is where we spent our first night together. The entire day was amazing. Congratulations Sara !
Tell us about your crochet sweater!! I loved watching everything about your day, despite the rain everything still looked fabulous.
Thank you for sharing. You and your husband looked amazing. Everything looked beautiful. Rain on your wedding day is good luck. Best wishes for many years of love and laughter!
Ms. S, 🥂Congrats Thanks for Sharing Your Big Day🥂 The Momentos on your bouquet were Fantastic 💋🫂 Love Your Videos🤗 Chris from Chicago ❤
Don't feel bad all that matters is that you , hubby and everyone enjoyed.❤
Sara Jane, you looked GORGEOUS 💕 Congratulations and Best Wishes for a LIFETIME OF HAPPINESS!
Oh my gosh that dress is STUNNING! The sleeves are amazing.
It looks like you and your husband had a wonderful start to your marriage! Everything looked absolutely beautiful, and that includes the bride and groom as well! Thank you for sharing your big day with us! It all looked so beautiful and filled with love.
Sara Jane, it was sweet of you to share so much of your special day. Life will never go completely as planned, so just laugh at the things that didn’t go like you had hoped, and remember them as your little stories you can always tell. Your dress looked lovely on you and it was beautiful. I for one love a good storm, so I would have loved the storm that rolled through. Love the idea of the speeches at the rehearsal dinner. Much more intimate.
You looked so beautiful. I love Grove Park Inn. Been many times
You looked stunning Sara Jane! Beautiful wedding!
All wedding days don’t go as planned. My hair person melted plastic from the comb in my hair and it took two other hairdressers at the salon to get the plastic out and it did burn some of my hair off.
My Sons wedding was in a different Time zone and the preacher was late. And a hair dresser didn’t show up so my daughter and another girl did all the bridesmaids hair.
Congratulations. You looked absolutely beautiful. I wish you and your husband a long and happy life together ❤
Such a beautiful bride 😭😭😭
Thank you! ❤❤
Oh my goodness! My hometown is 20 minutes from Grove Park Inn! What a great place. I'm glad you got to visit my home state and I hope your time in the NC mountains was fabulous! Congratulations and best wishes!
You looked beautiful, and so was your wedding. It looks like you had a big budget. I always heard that rain on a wedding day was a good thing!
Congratulations Sarah Jane and Colton!!!
You looked gorgeous!! Wishing you and Colton a lifetime of happiness. My husband and I paid for our own wedding, 34 years ago, and we didn’t have much money. We ran out of food and beer. We just moved the party to a local hotel bar and had a blast!
So happy that you shared your special day!. You looked fabulous and all of your guests looked fantastic!
I got married on May 16th just two days before you ❤️. Even a month later I still find myself thinking about it so often, my regrets, missing the planning process so dearly, etc. I have struggled quite a bit with post-wedding blues, but overall I’m so grateful the day happened. Congratulations girl, cheers to being newlyweds!!! 🥂
Beautiful ❤❤❤
My jaw literally dropped when I saw the tent fall 😮 !!! But otherwise, everything looked amazing! You were a stunning bride! Thanks for sharing the wedding with us. I've been following you for years, and it makes me so happy to see you happy 😊. Congratulations 🎉❤
You both looked great! The regrets sound more like life happened and you came through nicely. Congratulations!
Congratulations Sara Jane and Colton! God bless you both!💒🙏
Ugh it rained on my wedding day and the bottom of my dress got so dirty. I’m glad everything turned up great for you. Looked like everyone had a good time. You looked beautiful.
The rain thing happened on my daughter’s wedding day too! An absolute monsoon! And ended 45 minutes before her wedding began. It was a backyard wedding but my dad had the brilliant idea of covering the entire backyard in plastic sheeting and held down with bricks and everything heavy we could find before the rain came. It totally worked! One muddy spot but it didn’t make any difference. It was so fun!
Your wedding weekend demonstrates how lovely a person you are inside and out. Just beautiful. Wishing you and your spouse all the best as you journey on.
Sara Jane you looked Stunning, your dress was gorgeous. Your wedding was beautiful.. I wish you and your husband a lifetime of happiness!!!
What beautiful and well thought out events you put together! You are a stunning couple. So many things I would have done differently, looking back. We got married in 2001 just 2 weeks after 9/11, so all my husband's friends and most of his family from the UK cancelled their flights coming over (He is from the UK)- so our wedding was very "lop-sided." I also noticed when we were about to get introduced in to the reception hall that the wedding cake was 100% wrong. Not even CLOSE to what I ordered- and it was U-G-L-Y. I was so not happy, but in that moment, I decided it wasn' t worth making a scene for something nobody could fix. My ring-bearer forgot the ring pillow at the house, my flower girl broke out in to hives in the limo and our photographer did the most boring, canned and unimaginative wedding photos ever! But.... in the grand scheme of things, the tragedy of 9/11 put all of these things into perspective and they really didn't matter. We are still going strong 23 yrs later. (PS boy, that cake really was ugly, though.....!)
U if
I think sleeves are the right choice when they fit the dress & the person. I love your sleeves. Absolutely gorgeous! I also love the things you kept close to you on your bouquet 💐. My cousin got married back in December 23'. She had a memory table. Her best friend got covid & passed in 20', They were so young. Also, our grandmother had passed almost 2 months prior. I love encorporating ppl we love & have lost.
Beautiful wedding Sara Jane!
You looked so beautiful,and Colton looked so handsome. Wishing you both a lifetime of good health, good times, and lots of happy times.
Beautiful wedding 🎉 congratulations
Beautiful wedding. Those events were something that made your day more memorable. On my wedding day my brother walked me down the aisle as we had lost my dad when I was 11, he had no socks on he forgot them, and we forgot the aisle runner! Thank you for sharing your beautiful day.
Congratulations ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤!!
Sara Jane, you looked absolutely beautiful! I love the sleeves on your gown.
THE SLEEVES IS SOOOO REAL!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!! Gorgeous 💗💗
Your dress absolutely stunning and you looked so beautiful!
I watch but rarely comment, but your wedding looked gorgeous! ❤
I have been following you for years! I rarely comment, I need to do better, but I wanted to tell you what a gorgeous bride you were! Your hubby is so handsome, I’m so glad you found your forever! Cheers to a happy, healthy marriage for years to come ❤️
Congratulations on the two of you.
Congratulations 🎊
I am from Mississippi! Go Dawgs! I wish yall a life full of love, laughter, hope, good health and prosperity! 🎉
Oh my goodness! You looked so beautiful and you had me all teary eyed. I loved how everything was so meaningful and special! I love your choice of your entrance song! It rained on my wedding day too. Everyone told us that it was good luck! I’m sorry that your tent collapsed. You still looked gorgeous during the delay! Wishing you and Colton a lifetime of happiness!!! ❤❤
How fun despite the hiccups! Your dress is gorgeous and I like that you didn't make your bride's maids wear a taffeta nightmare. ❤
Congrats and may you have a long happy life together.
Edit for typo.
Love the pop of green in your setting. Beautiful wedding festivities!
You were a BEAUTIFUL BRIDE ‼️‼️‼️‼️❤️❤️❤️. Absolutely loved your whole story .,the good and the bad…but the good definitely outweighed any bad because you were with the ones you loved ❤️ TY so much for sharing your beautiful day with us and God Bless both of you ‼️❤️
You looked gorgeous as always! Yes somethings always happen in wedding days but you do just have to laugh about it later and enjoy it anyways. Love grove park! I live about an hour or so from there. It's absolutely gorgeous 😍
Congratulations 🎉
I only had one photographer and he showed up sick, 30 years ago, he stuck it out but our reception was on a dinner boat and he couldn’t even eat. We felt bad for him. It was a day wedding and it poured the whole time we were on the boat. Sunshine came out when we were getting off the boat. Still married, the rain kept everyone in dancing and not sightseeing on the deck. Yours looked perfect.
Oh Sara Jane I totally felt your rain pain on that Saturday. My niece had an outdoor wedding about 2 hours from where you got married (High Point, NC) and it turned into a muddy mess. Thank goodness your reception was inside. Hers was not so again, even under a tent it was a washout 😮. You looked beautiful, so happy for you two!
Congratulations...you were such a beautiful bride.
You looked beautiful, and I loved the sleeves. Your dress didn’t look like you were showing too much, but I get the feeling of being too exposed. Both of my children’s wedding had weather issues, nothing major, but planning any portion outside is so tricky. Thanks for sharing!
You made a beautiful bride. You look like a princess, just on her way to meet her prince!
Best wishes to you and Congratulations to Colton! Happy wishes to you both!
Beautiful couple! Through the challenges you two made it through!🥂Rain is good luck on a wedding! Also, your dress…Stunning! Here’s to forever for you two!🎉🥂🩷
Very beautiful bride and beautiful wedding.. congratulations!!
It's actually good luck to have rain on your wedding day. Also, no wedding day gets through without something going wrong. You were just glowing, Sara Jane. Gorgeous!!
It was beautiful from start to finish. You looked amazing but I do understand about not feeling totally comfortable in your dress. I loved the sleeves and thought they brought a lot to the dress and the overall look. Thank you for sharing and Congratulations to you and Colton.
You looked beautiful!!
You looked stunning and very, very happy. Much love to you and your husband.
❤congratulations! You looked stunning!
Beautiful wedding dear. You looked wonderful! Our 2013 wedding at Virginia Beach, on the beach, July 1, rained cats and dogs, we were dripping wet, literaly, they told me its good luck!
Your wedding was beautiful, congratulations.
My daughter had a halter dress. Very flattering and no tugging.
So happy for you 2❤
Congratulations 🎉. Here’s to a lifetime of happiness ❤
You had an amazing wedding. You had some really neat ideas. Everything looked gorgeous. You did too.
You had a beautiful wedding and the venue was beautiful. The most important thing is you both had a beautiful day with all the bumps. You had your friends and family and that is all that it's about. It was nice to see Jamie there. I wish you all of God's blessings on your marriage.
From your video, both watching and listening to you, it looks like it was a magical day! Your dress was so lovely! Thank you for sharing your recap with us.
