From the bride: “My favorite moment was Ben and mine’s private dance after everyone was outside waiting for our exit. It was bittersweet to see the empty party room! Ben just kept saying, ‘Hey, we’re married, we did it!,’ and it was making me cry! I had been waiting for that day since what seemed like forever!”
