Hello. My advice is to do whatever you think is best. I knew in my heart I wanted to have the wedding I dreamed of and that was not at the courthouse (not that there is anything wrong with that--I know that the important thing is the fact that you're joining your lives). I wanted to get married in the church I grew up in and have a wonderful party with all of our family and friends in attendance. We were very blessed with our timeline, so blessed. We started working with our vendors about 7 months before our wedding, and a few weeks after we submitted our K-1 paperwork. We had incredibly flexible vendors and ended up changing our date 3 times! Get everything in writing--and work with vendors who won't charge you to change the date. We sent out our wedding invitations as soon as he was approved for his visa and got married once he'd been in the states about 2 months. Everything was just as I dreamed it would be.

It is possible. It's a lot of work, a ton of planning, and a lot of prayer---but you can do it! Our wedding video below is proof. Best of luck to you! -Ashley

The warmth of true friendship and the love that binds the hearts of husband and wife are a foretaste of heaven. God has ordained that there should be perfect love and perfect harmony between those who enter into the marriage relation. Let bride and bridegroom in the presence of the heavenly universe pledge themselves to love one another as God has ordained they should. {LYL}

Thought to share our journey for those who need the encouragement!
