First Time For Everything

You never stop having firsts as a couple, no matter how long you’ve been together. Despite being together for over 10 years, these two experienced many new firsts together on their wedding day. Their first sunrise hike, their first time seeing each other in wedding clothes, their first time hiking to this glacier lake, their first time reading their vows to one another, and of course their first kiss as a married couple.⁠

Being together over 8 years ourselves, it always warms our hearts seeing couples who have been together forever tie the knot. Love never stops growing, changing, and challenging us. When you say I do, you’re saying I do to a lifetime of adventure, patience, and facing life’s obstacles together. Together, you can lean on each other and support one another through the good times and bad.⁠
