That’s what I had to keep reminding myself. That it doesn’t have to be perfect because looking back on it, it’s going to be perfect because you’re married.” i Schobel Vendors Meal Herbert’s Schovajsa Catering, Bleiblerville Cake Patty Cakes by Kris Harden, Bleiblerville Dress Fiancee Bridal Boutique, Spring Flowers The Flower Market, Brenham DIY Decor Ling’s Moment Photographer Ashley Arnold 22 INSITE September 2019
