Cailen + Sean; France Destination Wedding

October 28th, 2009 @ 10:33 am by Punam Bean

This was like the wedding I imagined for myself after watching Disney movies as a child. It was one for the storybooks, set in a private chateau in Le Grand Lucé, in the Loire Valley of France.

I feel so lucky that Cailen and Sean found me floating around the internets. It's such a true blessing when I get to work with a couple so kind and loving. The relationship Cailen has with her siblings is enviable. Her brother had so much to say in his toast that he wrote her a book. Her little sister clung to her side as Cailen prepared for her right of passage. At one point, they lay on the bed, gazing at each other with marvel, saying I love you. I mean, wow. Just being around that kind of love is eye opening. And that's to say nothing yet of Cailen and Sean.

I love my job because it is pure joy. I get to be around all these amazing people with amazing relationships, and I get to tell their amazing stories. Sean came to America from Ireland on a track scholarship. It was on college track that he met Cailen, and these years later they look at each other like they each are the luckiest people around.

Also, the Mayor of the town donated all the flowers for the wedding! How insanely awesome is that?? Cailen and Sean
