Our Wedding

Madison was coming off the toughest year of her life, had just moved into her own space, and was hardly looking to find the love her life. Call it fate or chance, or whatever else you might, but she'd find him weather she was looking for it or not. Dawson had come to the conclusion that perhaps the Idea of "The one" didn't exist and maybe that was okay. After fighting tooth and nail to make a connection and feel like he could find the answer to that question, hope had dwindled, and then, through some stroke of luck he was introduced to someone truly special, and he knew he'd have to make sure he never let her go. Jakob and Katie worked together, and with good intentions facilitated the meeting of the now happy couple, without them there is no story to tell. Dawson and Madison would go on their first date on a brisk late December evening, in the coming weeks their connection would grow, and through thick and thin they stuck by each other, their bond became a beacon of light that filled a void in both of them, a piece that had been missing, A flame to bring them warmth in the cold of that first winter together. Proof that above all else, when you need it most, love finds you.

When you need it most, Love finds you.
