To many couples, it boils down to the fine details.  The perfect flowers, the right colored table clothes, the shoes, the dress, even the photos at the end of the day.  But with Jess and Warren, it became clear very quickly that what was most important to them was community, and of course the actual ceremony that made them man and wife.  After about 10 minutes into their beautiful ceremony out on the lawn at Keystone Ranch, lightning struck.  Literally.  There was a huge lightening storm and rain and wind and chaos and a random guest who stood up in the middle of the ceremony to request that everybody move inside out of a better “safe than sorry” mentality.  It was a good call.  It was getting pretty hairy– and by hairy, I mean hairs on the arm standing up, hairy.  A bit disappointed, Jess and Warren moved the whole wedding into the tent and started over from the precession.  And it was absolutely perfect.  PERFECT! The laughter, the literal closeness of friends and family and the positive attitudes of everybody made this ceremony one of the best and most meaningful (certainly most memorable) ceremonies I’ve attended.  I feel in love with Jess and Warren even more than I already was and I just think the world of them.  They are fun loving, carefree, and above all, these two have their priorities straight.  It is clear they are adored by many (including their furry child, Boo).

Kudos to Emily Campbell and Taylor Brownlee of Bella Events for rolling with the punches and pulling off an absolutely stunning event.
