7.11.11 was a day that I'd been waiting on for over a year. The funny thing is, before I proposed to Nicole, she already had her wedding date in mind... Just so happened the day fell on a Monday (yesterday). We were determined to do it OUR WAY, and not let others influence us with their visions of how our day should be.
Our original plan was to get dressed up and go to the courthouse and get married. But after a little SNAFU at the courthouse last week, we found out we couldn't get married there on a Monday! We had to come up with a quick backup plan, which was the Old 4th Ward Park here in Atlanta. It was the perfect spot!
I got to the park and it was super hot, soon as I saw Nicole walk down the stairs in her dress, the heat wasn't even on my mind anymore. She looked so beautiful, like the first day we met. At that moment, I was like damn, that's my wife! Reality set in and it was time to get married. Our Pastor Olu Brown did an excellent job with our ceremony. Short and sweet, but still very much meaningful and informative.
We had a few family members and friends at the park to share our special day with us. They are soldiers to deal with that heat just to see us transform into the Williams! After the ceremony, we went on a brief photo shoot around Atlanta. Our photographer, Justin Jackson and I have been friends since the 3rd grade, so we knew he would have some funky fresh concepts in mind for our pictures. To view all of the pictures click HERE!
