my best friend is no longer stephanie crane. she is now stephanie bowles. and it's legit this time.
words cannot express how happy i am for steph and shawn.
they deserve all of the happiness in the world!!
these days true love is hard to come by... but i can assure you that these two people have found it and they have found it in each other.
one thing was missing from this weekend though, and that was cindy crane- stephanie's incredible mother.
cindy passed away last fall after years of battling cancer. she was the definition of a fighter.
every girl dreams of the day she will get married, and those dreams always involve both parents being there, but that isn't always how it works out.
stephanie and shawn were able to plan it out though to where they held a small ceremony in a neighbor's front yard where steph's mom could watch her get married. my dad just so happens to be a pastor and very willingly married the two of them back in september. they did not sign any official papers,
but under God they were already married.
they held off on the big ceremony and reception until this spring. steph always wanted a spring wedding and she wanted time to grieve over the loss of her mother- even though that is something you never truly accept.
so april 14th, 2012 they were married for a second time and let me tell you- it could not have been a more beautiful or more perfect wedding!!
here are pictures from the first wedding held for steph's mother.
not every girl gets to marry the same man twice- am i right?!
xoxo.
