Three weekends ago I had the honor of covering Amy and Conrad’s very elegant wedding at the historical Aldolphus Hotel in Dallas, Texas. The decor and set up was just absolutely amazing. White orchids and roses everywhere! I met Amy and Conrad while I was documenting Bobby and Tuanh’s wedding last summer. Ever since then, I got to know this lovely couple and their beautiful children quite a bit.

Amy and Conrad met while working for the same company in 2005. Conrad was working in the Houston office and Amy was working in the office in Chicago. They would talk on the phone daily and Conrad’s British accent was the tease of the most of their conversations and it wasn’t until New Year’s Eve that Conrad decided to visit Chicago. When she picked him up at the airport, they both knew that there was more than just a friendship. They had a long distance relationship for 45 months and in May 2006, Conrad decided to move to Chicago to take the next step in their relationship.

Amy fell in love with Conrad when he first met her son. She loves the way he interacted with Nathan and how patient Conrad was. She knew then that he was the man that she wanted to share the rest of her life with. Conrad said, “I fell in love with Amy when I realized that I could not live withou her and how much family meant to her, family is very important to me.” After the birth of their daughter, Ava, that was the icing on the cake and he proposed to her, his soulmate.

Congratulations again Amy and Conrad. Thank you for honoring me to cover your big day. I had to say that I cried maybe 3 times that night. The love that you both share can be seen and felt through your interactions and the side way glances you give one another. I wish you two nothing but love, peace and joy.

the handsome hairdresser.
