“Slow and steady wins the race.” “Like wine, good things get better with time.”
For Stephen and Chelsie, these statements ring true. When Chelsie met Stephen, she was love struck and set out to get to know him more. They found commonalities, but it still took a while for Stephen to truly open up. Chelsie stayed patient and genuine and soon, Stephen started to fall in love with her. They began dating and saw that they had more in common than than ever. Soon, Stephen knew it was time to propose and he picked the perfect way-on the banks of the Frio river in Concan, Texas. Together, they planned a wedding that would set the tone for the rest of their lives. A beautiful day that was family oriented, while surrounded by their closest friends all there to support them.
On a sunny day in Lake Jackson, Texas, Chelsie and Stephen promised each other forever in St. Michael’s Catholic Church. Tears filled their family and closest friends eyes as they sat watching the couple, committing to support Chelsie and Stephen as they embarked on their journey of marriage. We had a wonderful time capturing the couple’s special day! Chelsie and Stephen, thank you so much for having us! We wish you all the love and happiness in the world!
