Our First Dance
“It’s you and me and all of the people... and I don’t know why, but I can’t take my eyes off of you. ”

Today marks our One Year Anniversary and in honor of that, we wanted to share our First Dance Video with you. :)
We thought a lot about what we wanted to do for our first dance. Would we go the funny route and choreograph moves to sexy back or would we go the slow, romantic sway back and forth through a five minute song route. Oh the choices...
I honestly didn't worry about it too much. But when we heard the song "You and Me" by Lifehouse, we both instantly knew that this was the song for our first dance as husband and wife. It was such a perfect blend of Jeff's music and my music and everything about it felt right and felt, well.. us.
We spent a couple of hours one night pushing aside the coffee table and dancing under the light of our projector as we came up with the moves that would be sweet and romantic but also rated G for, you know, all of the family watching quite closely. We practiced it probably 20 times the day before our rehearsal dinner and then left it all out on the dance floor that day.
It honestly went perfect, although I'm not sure why everyone was standing up haha. I think I stepped on Jeff's feet a couple of times near the beginning and I give him one of those "you just missed a step" looks about half way through.
I hope this inspires you, encourages you, makes you reminisce on your own First Dance moments or gives you some ideas for your future First Dance.
Dance your heart out,
Jess

HIS PROPOSAL
The best stories are the ones you didn't know you were writing. You get so caught up in living in them that one day you look back and say, "That was well written."
OUR WEDDING
A perfect fall wedding nestled in the mountains of Estes Park, Colorado surrounded by golden leaves, friends and family, and true love hanging in the air.
