Every once in a while, we all go to a wedding that is nothing but glitzy and glamorous. Everybody is left breathless by all the fancy details, the extravagant dress, the designer shoes, the extraordinary sea of flowers. Sure, it's a treat to our eyes and we can spend a whole day ooh-ing and ahh-ing about every over-the-top detail. But when we witness a wedding that is purely about love, friendship, and a celebration of the couple's true personalities, I think it's something even more magical than having a seven-tiered wedding cake. Susan and John's wedding was the perfect example.

John was an old friend from college, but we met Susan for the first time when we flew to Detroit on their wedding weekend. Probably in our entire history of weddings, we've never seen a bride so genuinely happy and excited about getting married than Susan was. It was that kind of giddy, child-like, pure excitement that made this bride glow on her wedding day. Even right after the first look, they couldn't help but clap their hands in total glee. It was the cutest thing we've ever seen. John is usually a pretty quiet, low-profile kind of of guy, but when he surprised his bride at the reception with a personal song (and sang in front of everybody), we couldn't help but marvel at how sweet this couple was together. They would do anything just to make each other smile--like showing up to the wedding wearing Converses under his tux.

It didn't matter that this wedding wasn't as royal as Kate Middleton's or as fancy as the Clinton's. Susan and John made their wedding extraordinary just by being completely in love.
