Emily, Katharine and I have had so much fun creating this issue. The last year has been gooder than grits, y'all! This isn't just a magazine about weddings; it's our story, too. We crafted every page from scratch, laughed more than a hyena in a singin' contest, shared crazy adventures, long flights and late nights. Somewhere between photo shoots, our daily office escapades and the love stories we have the honor of telling every day, we have learned together what love really is. I hear my Grandpa Cecil's thick Alabama drawl every time I read these words... " Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth... Love never fails." Your wedding is bound to, in some ways, not go as planned. Your marriage is bound to have bumps. But... love never fails. Real love covers over a crying flower girl and rain on your backyard ceremony. Authentic love will make you smile at her to wipe away the tears and play in the rain like you did as a kid. Love made the creation of this, our third issue, one of the most gratifying experiences of my life. Oh yes, we’ve got some funny stories, too. Grab some sweet peach pie and come on over to iloveswmag.com for all the behind-the-scenes dish! As you navigate a sea of big day decisions and engagement hurdles, always come back to the center of why you said "Yes!" in the first place. Love never fails.
