SPRING AT STONE CHAPEL | SAVOY BALLROOM WEDDING IN SPRINGFIELD, MO | ABIGAIL + KENDELL
Corona, am I right? What a crazy season of life. These two managed to beat the corona restrictions by just a couple of days and I’m so thankful for that! Abigail and Kendell are two of the most down to earth and genuine people. They smiled and laughed their entire wedding day and managed to giggle through all of the hand sanitizer jokes. And who better to be quarantined with than your new spouse?
“We first met at a college ministry retreat. We got to talking at a bonfire with friends and walked back to our rooms together with some friends that night. On the way back, we all decided to just lay in the road for a minute and look at the stars. After the retreat, Abby decided she though Kendell was incredibly cute and very fun and sent a risky facebook message to ask him to her sorority formal. The message started with the word "hiya!", which is something we still laugh about today. Kendell took two days to reply (because who uses facebook messenger?) and after that Abby never had to ask another guy to a formal dance! We went with a group of friends to eat dinner before the formal, but neither of us remember much else about that night because we talked to each other the entire time and wouldn't let anyone else get a word in! After the dance, Kendell asked Abby out to coffee and we had a three-hour conversation about just everything. Both of us had never felt the kind of connection we had in that moment. Now, three years of inside jokes, traveling out of the country, a few degrees earned, and a lot of gummy bears eaten - we are so excited to officially be husband and wife. We truly are perfectly balanced for each other. We often smile and think about how God perfectly shaped our lives to intersect at just the right moment in time.”
“Ultimately, this is a day to celebrate the start of your grandest adventure together! Don't be afraid to make it unique, quirky, and just downright fun! This should be a day you look back on fondly, so just go for it!” - Abigail
