Sometimes the love of a lifetime is right in front of us waiting to be discovered. Miranda and Matt knew of each other since middle school, but they really began talking the summer Miranda graduated and Matt was home from his first year of college. The summer flew by in a blur of baseball, long talks, and movies. When they had to leave each other for college both ended up in tears, wondering what they’d do with the other 6 hours away. Their affection for each other was obvious, and despite the distance between them, they made it work.

Christmas break couldn’t come soon enough, and Miranda spent the holiday with Matt and his family. Matt had a surprise for her that day–a flight out to Tulsa, Oklahoma where they’d attend his biological mother’s wedding. That wasn’t the only surprise he had in store for Miranda, though. The day of their flight home, Matt proposed to her in the garden of the hospital where he was born. The happy couple planned their wedding, Miranda found her dream dress at Petals and Promises, and the two were married on September 27, 2014.

“I’ll never forget that moment. I think it’s different for everyone [and] we hadn’t been together for very long, but you just know when it feels so meant to be,” Miranda elaborated. “This is what I feel with him and we have our own language of love.”

And, luckily, Miranda got to showcase their love in these images created through the combined talents of Convincing Image Photography, Carrie Purser Makeup & Hair Artistry, Jerrick’s Fine Jewelry, and Sego Floral. We are absolutely in love with how stunning they are!
