Pie Ranch
Pescadero, California
Ross and Kelly met online and what was supposed to be a casual first meeting at a coffee shop in Felton turned into an effortless 11 mile hike through the redwoods together and instant chemistry. They pretty quickly knew that they had found their person. Over the next year and a half, they've been on countless camping and backpacking trips, creating sweet memories in nature together. They even achieved a legendary 338-day streak solving New York Times crossword puzzles, a feat that will forever be cherished. RIP.
Pie Ranch in Pescadero perfectly encapsulated the authentic charm in Ross and Kelly's relationship. It became the backdrop for their wedding day, reflecting back that simplicity and beauty. (Sweet note: Kelly made her wedding dress with her mom and dyed her own shoes.) Ross and Kelly's energy together is vibrant and infectious. Their friends and family carried that same energy through the day. It was full of laughs and tears and hugs and so much love.
One of my favorite parts of the ceremony was a reading from John Craigie's song, Dissect The Bird.
So when the candle flickers, when the days get dark
They call them first world problems but they still break your heart
The universe feels like it's against you
Just take a minute to realize, all it
Took to make you
Your parents had to meet, as random as that was
And hang out long enough at least
To make some love
And make a baby
And give it your name
And ALL your ancestors had to do the same exponentially backwards
To the start of life
So much had to happen, just exactly right
Sparks had to catch, oceans had to freeze
Billions of cells had to survive, Endless disease
Civilizations had to crumble, wars had to be fought
Bad presidents had to get elected
Good presidents had to get shot
People had to leave, hearts had to get broken
People had to die
Just so your eyes could open
The Universe is not against you
The Universe is not against you, it went through a lot
Just to give you a chance, it must have wanted you
Pretty bad
No pressure though, no pressure though
The Universe went through a lot but no pressure bro
You don't gotta be perfect, you don't gotta be a saint
Just don't waste it, this was not a mistake
