The Ceremony at The Ranch at St. Cloud
The ceremony was held at The Ranch at St. Cloud, a beautiful venue in St. Cloud, Florida surrounded by open land and natural scenery. One of the most touching moments of the ceremony was the washing of the feet, a powerful representation of love, humility, and serving one another. It was an incredibly emotional moment that brought tears and chills to so many in attendance. Throughout the ceremony, everyone was praying and worshiping God, and I truly felt the Lord’s presence throughout their wedding day.
Wedding Portraits
Following the ceremony, we took some time to explore the beautiful fields surrounding The Ranch at St. Cloud for their wedding portraits. The morning started off rainy and overcast, but just in time for portraits, the sun came out and gave us the most beautiful light. The soft, natural setting and gorgeous sunshine created the timeless, romantic images Ruby and Nick were hoping for.
The Reception

Some of the highlights included:
- Rather than having a traditional first dance, Ruby and Nick sang a worship song together.
