Sarah & Jon-Ross are that couple that have kind of been together forever – they grew up in the same town, in fact – but real clarity about who they are and who they want to be (together and as individuals) really happened when far, far away from those familiar streets. They grew up in Wisconsin but moved to Texas to pursue adventure and their sweet hometown wedding was something of a celebration of finding yourself…at home. Sarah & Jon-Ross adore pontoon rides and Old Fashioneds, afternoons with friends, fun with their rather big families, Wisconsin and its wonderful particularities. And so, of course, their wedding was all about the familiar made extraordinary: a wedding sacrament celebrated with a family friend officiating, in part, a lakeside reception with flowers designed by a childhood friend, dancing the night away surrounded by the people who made you who you are. It was a day where Sarah could kick off her heels and get sand between her toes and Jon-Ross could unabashedly enjoy the happiness of the woman that is his forever. It was…simple, gorgeous, familiar, familial, and all together stunningly perfect.
