September 19, 2020. I’ve been looking forward to this day for a long time along with Mariah, Ben and their family and friends. We celebrated the marriage of the newest Mr. and Mrs. Smith at their Shippensburg wedding on a cool and breezy Saturday afternoon. Fall came in around this part of the world quick and the day was filled with tons of cool weather, autumn vibes and even some gorgeous Fall trees.
I’ve known these two for quite some time after settling into this area. Ironically I met them both separately and did not realize they were dating one another for the longest time. Ben has served me many after-work drinks post college and Mariah is the best hairdresser who keeps my locks fresh and blonde year round. She works at Meraki Salon who did all the hair and makeup for this entire day and you can see for yourself why everyone should 100% hire them for all of your hair and makeup needs.
Their wedding day was filled with so much love and being around such wonderful people really energized me for the week ahead. Ben’s emotions throughout the day really tug at my heartstrings. His love for his bride Mariah is real and deep and inspiring. And while wedding details are fun and pretty — a marriage is what matters most. I’m so happy Mariah and Ben found each other and were able to enjoy a day with their closest ones surrounding them.
