A few months ago this couple was finalizing plans for an amazing wedding with a guest list of approximately 250 family and friends. Last Tuesday, they got married in an intimate ceremony in Arlington with most family and friends attending virtually, and it was just as amazing.

A teacher/school administrator and nurse, these two are no strangers to the impacts of COVID. However, Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. and in this case it beat out the pandemic, as well as the near 100 degree heat of a mid-July afternoon.

There was something old, something new, borrowed and blue. There was laughter. And of course, there were masks.

The beginning of a lifetime together ended with a champagne toast and a promise of great things to come.

Congratulations Missy and Chris.
