TELL US ABOUT THE MOMENT YOU SEEN EACH OTHER FOR THE FIRST TIME ON YOUR WEDDING DAY.

Sidney— “Well I had been pretty good about not crying too much all day. I couldn’t ruin my makeup that Morgan Collins had worked so hard on…. But when I got to the top of the steps after not seeing him all day, I lost it. It just felt so right. And I felt so loved.

Deron— “When you walked down the aisle the only thing that popped into my head is, ‘Wow, this feels just right.’ Everything felt perfect.”
