From the moment we first met Kyle & Elena, we knew right off the bat that they were unique. They are so special because they have this magical, tangible love that immediately fills up whatever space they are occupying together. You can spot it from a mile away– the way Kyle giggles at Elena’s jokes (even if the jokes are at his expense). Or the way that he opens the up car door for her… or the way he lets her pick which new restaurant to try. You can see it in the way they motivate each other to be the best version of themselves possible. Kyle & Elena embrace each other’s differences. He is an extreme organizer/researcher and a lover of all things neat. She, on the other hand, is a carefree spirit– not to mention a dancing machine and Michael Jackson’s biggest fan. But even through these differences, they have one very important thing in common…
Love.
And as the song goes… Love is all you need.
On their wedding day, April 25th, 2015, the air was not full of nerves but of excitement & happiness. Elena was all smiles as her closest family and friends surrounded her. As the girls got ready, a Michael Jackson Pandora station softly played in the background, quite opposite from how loudly the King of Pop’s songs would be playing later on in the evening at the reception!
Meanwhile in Kyle’s room, the boys were busy drinking energy drinks and getting into their military apparel… which is a pretty intense process. It was so cool to watch! Each badge is strategically placed by measuring the distance between one badge to another. It has to be extremely precise. With this being our first Military Wedding, we were fascinated by the whole operation. It’s a beautiful tradition that makes one feel proud and full of happy spirits.
The ceremony was at The Magnolia Hotel in downtown Omaha. It was the absolute perfect setting for this pair. This venue gives off an old-world kind of vibe that is traditional and simple. It’s a gorgeous hotel filled with beams of window light and antique decor. The rain quickly dried from the early morning April showers and the sun poked out from behind the clouds with just enough sunlight to illuminate the courtyard for the ceremony.
It was a picture-perfect day that ended with hours of dancing, laughing and loving. So here’s to Kyle & Elena! We adore you two. Your marriage brings hope, happiness and promise to the lives of others.
-Love & Light
