This year has taught us what it means to be patient and to wait in the unknown. What an incredibly hard and difficult year it has been. If you are wondering how it is December already? We ask ourselves that almost daily. But believe it or not our wedding was over two months ago and as I look back on that day I have deep and profound gratitude for all that it was.
In 2014 just weeks before I turned 27, I learned I had breast cancer and since that day of diagnosis I continue to see that in the midst of life’s many mysteries, I have been given some of the very greatest blessings.
To say our wedding was one of life’s biggest blessings would be an understatement.
Soon after Kyle and I were engaged we began discussing what a wedding celebration would look like, where would it be? Who would we invite? Many of you who have found yourself engaged before, know the very daunting task that lies before you that is planning a wedding. What I could have never dreamt in the middle of our brainstorming was a phone call from Cheryl. A phone call asking if we would be the recipients of the 2020 Wedding Pink. Nearly speechless, we were overjoyed to receive this gift.
From the day we learned that we would be gifted OUR WEDDING we became family to not only the Wedding Pink team but the many vendors on the Western Slope that graciously donated their time, talents and resources to make our wedding everything we wanted it to be. While the year left us on our toes and many of us to wonder if we would even get to pull off the darn thing in this calendar year, the team of folks behind never waivered. These folks showed up, were flexible and in a year it would have been easy and understandable to walk away; they only assured us they were there every step of the way.
Kyle and I still pinch ourselves that we got to have our incredible Wedding. We cannot thank the Wedding Pink, Cheryl Ungar and Sheryl Fisher enough for all that they did to make our wedding truly a dream come true. We are so proud to have been the 10th Wedding Pink Wedding and thank you all for the support.
May you and your family be given an extra measure of joy and grace this holiday season.
With Love, Kyle and Kristina Andringa
