Staying positive doesn’t mean things will turn out okay. Rather it is knowing you will be okay no matter how things turn out.

This couple did not intend to book me. I always tell couples and venue owners I meet, “There are only three people who HAVE to be at a wedding. The couple to be married and the wedding officiant. So, keep my card.”
Lucky for this couple the venue owner had spoken with me the week before at networking lunch, because their family member who was their officiant had a medical emergency the day before the wedding. The owner gave me a call and I happen to live quite close to the Liberty Plantation in Cape Fair, MO.
I was able to get the husband the questionnaire and get a wonderfully meaningful wedding put together for them. I was so impressed looking back how much this groom took charge and made the special day for his bride as stress free as possible. This wedding had many hiccups that the bride never knew about till after.
Sometimes love is taking charge and making it work for the one you care about most!
