Nearly 8 years ago Rob and I started planning our wedding- a secret one where we planned to elope to Negril, Jamaica the following February and invite nobody. Not a soul. From the beginning we ordered no chairs from the wedding planner... she confirmed this via email several times and again upon our arrival at our dreamy hotel of huts on stilts. On our first day at the resort we met a swarm of friendly Canadians and a handful of hilarious couples from Indiana. The next morning I ran back to the wedding planner’s office and ordered a dozen chairs for our our new friends to come to our tiny ceremony on the beach the following day. On our wedding day, I walked up a sandy aisle flanked with easily 40 people- standing room only. It was spectacular.... these people took photos, friended us on Facebook to share them, one couple acted as our signing witnesses, one made a joyful champagne toast and all of us danced into the night. Tonight one of those amazing couples was traveling through Cincinnati and made time to enjoy a meal with us, our sweet 6 year old and our bun in the oven. It was like no time had passed and we had been together for all the time in between. Thanks, ❤️Rob and Theresa! (📸 cred: 6 year old Olivia)
