Jillian + Kevin – The St. Patrick’s Day Wedding

0

Luck of the Irish to you!

Yes, I know it’s May, not March… But we are going back to March 17, 2012 in this blog. Yes, that’s right… St. Patrick’s Day. Who doesn’t like St. Patrick’s Day? You get to wear a sweet color that not only represents Irish pride, it also represents my alma mater, the best school ever – Michigan State University – GO GREEN! I just got sidetracked… Sorry about that! Where was I? Oh yes, things we love about St. Patrick’s Day. Well, there’s green beer… people are totally nonjudgmental on this particular day when it comes to having a cocktail or two at 8 o’clock in the morning… You can typically play hooky and take the day off of work… Green donuts… Green bagels and cream cheese… Oh, leprechauns. Who doesn’t love leprechauns?!?!

What I love most about St. Patrick’s Day though, is that two of my very best friends in the world, got married and became husband and wife.

Jillian and Kevin are one of the best couples I know. They are good friends. Both of them. They will help you move into your first place or help you find your first job… They are always sure to get you a birthday gift (awesome birthday gifts by the way :) ) and they are always there to listen and give advice. Did I mention, they are a really good time? That too.

I was lucky enough to be a part of their wedding in more ways than one. I wasn’t just working this wedding, I was in it. Bridesmaid/producer was my official title for this one. Our Zara Creative team was there every step of the way to capture just how amazing these two are. Good times in green. Good times in green.

Jillian and Kevin, I love you both sooooo very much. Thank you for letting me and our company be a part of your big day. The coolest part is that we get to celebrate your anniversary every year with green beer!!!! ;-)
