Eve Bathurst | the central nest

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.Love never fails. – 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Sometimes you can just see the love that a couple has for each other.

It is simple math.

Boy loves girl. Girls loves boy.

This is the case for Elane and Craig. They are love. Their wedding is beautiful and filled with special touches to make the day even more remarkable. Incorporating the bride’s Lebanese heritage and the husband’s love of all things V8 this is one wedding that will be remembered for a long time.
