Sarah + Jonathon: The Wedding at Crossway Baptist Church







" I Wanna Hold Your Hand "
by The Beatles


Oh yeah I tell you somethin'
I think you'll understand
When I say that somethin'
I want to hold your hand
I want to hold your hand
I want to hold your hand
Oh please say to me
You'll let me be your man
And please say to me
You'll let me hold your hand
Now, let me hold your hand
I want to hold your hand





Sarah, she's like a goddess for me: her beautiful blue eyes, her long black hair, and her heart is as soft as a feather. I adore her.

Sarah and JD (Jonathon) both attend Crossway Baptist Church and got to know each other at the same life group in 2014. A few of Sarah's friends liked JD too (obviously JD was quite popular amongst the girls), so Sarah refused to show any interest in JD although they both liked each other.

Prayer is the best answer to any request- Sarah prayed for four days and she got an confirmation on prayer night about starting a relationship with JD. She excitedly called JD the next day and she cried... Awwww happy tears. JD proposed to Sarah in Kenya, on top of a waterfall. 

Now they are a happy married couple. 

The presence of God at their wedding ceremony was so strong that we could feel our goose bumps, we stopped taking photos and join in the worship with the whole congregations.  I love the idea of getting married at your home church- nothing compared to home. Sarah and JD were so comfortable during the ceremony that they even cracked a few jokes!

Oh love the bridal party! They were so much fun to work fun! They did Frozen dances, they spinned in their dresses, they played ninja games, they laughed, they had Star Wars fight...

The highlight of the night would be Sarah and Jd carrying a baby when they were introduced into the reception- they rocked!!! That was a last minute idea when they saw their friend's baby just before they were about to enter the reception. Sarah's mom gave her a big high five saying well done in surprising all the guests!

Dear Sarah and JD, thank you for having us at your amazing wedding. Love you and your awesome family, and also your crazy-fun bridal party.
