Dana & Justin Reynolds April 1, 2017
O
ur story isn’t traditional but it sure is wonderful. It also happens to be my favorite. We both were in our 30’s, prayerfully looking for our soul mate. We met online (a dating app to be specific). I have asked Justin since then “why do you think God had us meet that way?” 10 N W A W E D D I N G I D E A S
In his very endearing, matter of fact, deep country voice, he responded “because he knew that’s where we both were.” That’s probably one of the things I love most about him. He is a straight shooter, country, and witty it is just all part of his charm.
A
fter 10 months of dating, I guess he finally got tired of dropping me off at my front door at the end of our date nights, and he proposed. It really was like something out of a movie. It was a Saturday night in December. Justin later told me he had prayed all week for snow. He was driving me to the square to see the Christmas lights and on our way, the most giant snowflakes started falling. I looked at him and said “this night is perfect” and he looked back at me and said “yes it is”. I had no idea that just minutes later he would be on one knee surrounded by the twinkling lights, and the twinkle in my heart and eyes, asking me to be his forever.

e of course had a country shindig surrounded by burlap, buffalo plaid, and all the love you could imagine. My boys sat on bales of hay and looked on as Justin committed his life, not just to me, but to them also. We had Brock Entertainment play our Wedding Singer jam “I Wanna
Grow Old With You� as I walked towards my bearded beau. The celebration that followed included oldies, rap, country, and romance. There were so many wonderful aspects to the wedding that made it so very special from the photographer to the table settings.
It still all feels like a dream. I am so thankful God heard our prayers and the sincerity in them.
