Picture this: an intimate summertime elopement in a bright white studio with beautiful floral arrangements decorating the space where you say your “I’ do’s.” All of your closest friends and family are there to celebrate you. Sounds dreamy, right? That is exactly the day that Jensen and Roderick had at Lightbox this summer! Being witness to their day was so special and we are so excited to share their story with you!
Notes from the Newlyweds:
Q: How did you meet?
A: We are high school sweethearts! He was a senior and I was a Freshman.
Q: What was your proposal like?
A: We took a break after 6 years together and God brought us back together a year and half later so it was no surprise that we were ready to spend forever with each other. We had been talking about it for a long time so it seemed impossible to be surprised. One day when I was napping he came in and put the ring on my finger and when I woke up he said “Jensen Breeze will you marry me?” He did so good at catching me off guard and it was so genuine!
Q: What made you want to have an intimate wedding rather than a big, traditional wedding?
A: We originally wanted to elope but still wanted our family present. So when I saw Lightbox does intimate ceremonies, we were sold at the idea of not stressing over a big venue and still having our loved ones included.
Q: Where did you find your wedding day inspiration?
A: I knew I wanted it to be very simplistic but elegant so we chose white and greenery. I was constantly checking Pinterest and my Instagram reels became full of wedding tips and ideas.
Q: Why did you choose Lightbox as your wedding venue?
A: We chose Lightbox for the simplistic and elegant look. We loved the beautiful spiral staircase and the light it brought into the loft. Not to mention Hannah and Bekah were so helpful and quick to answer any concerns or questions.
Q: What words would you use to describe your wedding day?
A: Perfect, Intimate, Elegant, Bliss
Q: What have you been up to since your wedding? What is next for you two?
A: We went on our honeymoon in Washington State! Since we have been back we are settling back into home with our two dogs Bella and Ellie. I have started graduate school in Social work.
Q:How would you describe each other?
A: Roderick is loving, considerate, funny, personable, and compassionate.
Jensen is beautiful, warm-hearted, intelligent, funny and my best friend.
