LISA & MIKE: WEDDING

“Coffee date soon?!?!”

For those of you who don’t know me overly well, allow me to be the first to tell you that those three words – strung together with a gloriously inviting question mark {the more punctuation the better!} – are some of my absolute favourites!  They are heavenly…they are sweet…they are the beginning of a very beautiful friendship!

Coffee dates mean complaining about traffic…coffee dates mean a joint love affair for all things caffeinated…coffee dates mean getting to know someone.

Whenever one of my brides throws these three words my way, my day brightens…my world lightens…and I am immensely thankful for a job that includes the liberty of coffee dates!

Because, here’s the thing…

So much of life is a transaction.  An interaction of giving and taking.  Time…money…effort…services…quality…quantity…and and and…the list goes on.  So much of what we do these days isn’t personal…it’s business.  And I just can’t live in a world like that.

So, when I meet a couple like Lisa and Mike…and when I get those fantastic little words that pop up in my email, I am reminded that the world isn’t just transactional…it is – more than anything – relational.  It’s about people and not just pictures…it’s about an investment of emotion and not just money…it’s about the personal ties that bind and not just the contractual ones.

From day one, I have adored Lisa and Mike.  They are wonderful, kind, encouraging.  They are personal.  And my time with them has had a pretty fantastic coffee date or two!  Coffee dates that included the details of their life and not just the reception…coffee dates that vented about challenges of the day and not just the guest list.  They were coffee dates with friends… not just my clients.

Lisa and Mike, thank you for never letting it be just about business.  Thank you, for making it personal…

xoxo
