New Year's Eve Wedding

One of my best friends from college got married on NYE in Austin, and it was such a special way to ring in the New Year.  Erin and I met our Sophomore year at Ole Miss, pledged Kappa Kappa Gamma together, lived together our Senior year and three years later moved to DC at the same time.  We have remained so close through the years and still share so much even 1200 miles away.  Erin met Mike our first year living in DC, and from the beginning his pursuit of her was special and sweet.  It was incredible to watch your best friend fall in love.

Erin and Mike's big day was filled with AMAZINGNESS from the weather (70's in December) for their outdoor ceremony to the perfection of the vows they wrote for one another.  It was such a special event to be a part of, sharing the love of two made for one another. There is no doubt Mike will take care of my best friend for the rest of their lives. After all these years Erin and I can't believe we were engaged at the same and both getting married within four months of each other!

The bride still radiating beauty after hours of dancing.
 Happy New Year!
