Patrick + Kristina

Patrick and Kristina's devotion to each other is very much rooted in their Catholic Faith. They met on Catholic Match and in the course of writing to each other and praying together decided to enter into a relationship shortly thereafter. On a Fall day, after apple picking, Patrick proposed at the Adoration Chapel where Kristina goes to adoration every week and where they planned on renewing their Consecration to Merciful Love. After the consecration, Patrick took Kristina to the statue of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and got down on one knee, and he says it was the most beautiful and joyful moment in his life when Kristina said yes!

They were married in the absolutely stunning St. Peter's Church in Rome, NY, officiated by friend Father Michael Wolfe and concelebrant Father Edward Horkan. After the ceremony and some photos in the church, we went outside for a few photos in the park nearby and at Fort Stanwix. The rain had let up and gave us some soft, dreamy light to work with!

It was evident that Kristina and Patrick have a very deep love for each other; you could see the joy in their faces as they exchanged vows and the intense way they only had eyes for each other whenever they danced at the reception. It was a joy for me to see such love and be witness to such a special day! Congratulations to you both, and many years of happiness!
