Olivia's Grace: Bridges Wedding! A lovely picture of service!

Mark 10:45 "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many".

At the end of June I photographed the wedding of Tyler and Alyssa. They had such a beautiful ceremony, and throughout taking photographs I kept thinking of this verse for them. In the middle of their ceremony they did a washing of each other's feet to show sacrifice and service to one another. What a sweet picture of the way we are to lay down our own agendas and our own lives each and every day for one another. So many days, I know I, myself am incredibly selfish and simply want to live out life for me instead of setting my needs aside for others. This is the true picture of love and the gospel. You see, God has truly been refining my heart lately to remind me that it is not about my happiness or my own agenda, but that my life is about serving and loving others in a way to shine the light of Christ to the world. So, what a beautiful example these two reminded me of and have set as a starting point for their marriage! Also, they were so great with me the day of as I am moving a bit slower now coming to the end of my pregnancy! I hope you enjoy all the lovely pictures of their special day!

Excited for the day to begin!

Ah, I loved her dress!

Super heros! And how precious is their ring bearer?!

Special moments with mom!

So, Tyler sang to Alyssa as she walked down the aisle! Such a special moment! Not going to lie, I almost started crying myself!

Washing each other's feet symbolizing service to one another. As I said in the introduction, what a beautiful picture of the service of Christ in their lives.
