jackie + brian are marathon runners, in more than one way too. yes they do run marathons and have quite a few under each of their belts, but their relationship also follows the same path. they met twelve years ago. not two or three or five. twelve. and after all that time, it’s almost uncanny how close and in tune they are with each other. at one point in the morning, jackie had her back to the walkway and said she could feel brian walking past her and just as she said that, he did. there was over a decade of friendship built into their wedding and it’s so amazing to see it unfold.

some couples are exactly like each other and others are polar opposites. these two are different, yet similar at the same time. family means a lot to both of them and you can see that throughout the day. jackie wrote a special note to her dad and started the reception with not the traditional first dance, but the father and daughter dance. brian’s late father was the ceo of an airline and they honored him with the first seat at the ceremony, which had a model airplane on it. his step-dad officiated the wedding and during their vows, they spoke about how excited they are to be starting their own family together. but they are also quite different as well – jackie’s sparkling personality has her laughing throughout the entire morning to relieve the anxiety while brian was calm, collective and quiet. thank you so much for sharing your day with us so we can share it with everyone here.
