Music could be heard from the far back corner in the venue. In fact, the only sound louder was the rising and falling of laughter that echoed from within bridal suite. Sounds of sheer happiness – laughter, joy and excitement flowed around the room as Natalie sat back and sipped her mimosa. Much like the life and little family she had built alongside Kyle, these emotions prepared her as she soaked in the day she was going to marry her best friend.

Kyle stood in front of the iconic oak tree at Bowing Oaks, waiting for his bride. The sunlight filtered through the hanging moss creating a warm glow as Natalie walked down the aisle toward him. Family and friends gathered with them to witness a new chapter of their lives together – but not before Natalie shared a special promise to sweet little Karalyn, to always be the best bonus mom, and to love her (and her little sister Emmy) completely – forever. As Kyle and Natalie promised to remain by each others side, they sealed their promise with a kiss and on that spot —  in that moment, surrounded by a roar of cheers and applause, everything changed, their family became whole and their circle of love was complete!

Natalie and Kyle…I said it before, but I’ll say it again: being there with you on your wedding day, made me appreciate so much more, the joy this world has to offer.  We felt loved and appreciated and the best part is that you just didn’t make us feel that way…that’s the effect you have on everyone, plain and simple. We are so thankful for you both, and your sweet family and wish you guys the greatest adventure together! Congrats, Mr. and Mrs. Beal!
