The Phillips: Vow Renewal in Vegas!

Nate and I met when I was 21 and he was 19. We met on a Thursday, had our first date a few Sundays later and we have been together every since. It's never been perfect, but how boring would that be!?
We grow together, we support each other's goals and dreams, we trust in God to get us through all of it. 
...maybe it is perfect. Our perfect.

On October 18th, 2013
Nate & Christina and Eric & Crystal renewed their vows in a double ceremony
in Las Vegas at The Elvis Chapel

Nate and Christina
We did not want a large, formal wedding when we got married on May 1, 2004.
We had one anyway. Lame. 

Facts of a Friendship
Crystal and I went to high school and college together
 Crystal and Eric met two months before Nate and I met each other
Crystal and I "broke up" for TEN years. We call it our divorce. It sucked.
We "got back together" 6ish years ago. Thank God.
Crystal & Eric and Nate & I got married during that ten year hiatus
Crystal and I were both sad on our wedding days that our best friend wasn't standing next to us
We needed to fix that!

Nate and I always wanted to run off to an island or find a cheesy Elvis in Vegas to make us official.
Crystal & Eric were up for the adventure and wanted to renew their vows too.
This also satisfied Crystal & Christina's need to have each other
 as "the bitch up front" (aka matron on honor, we are so classy)

We finally did it- on October 18, 2013!

Here are some of our fave photos for our 4 day Las Vegas Vow Renewal Adventure

They are rarely serious.

Good times were had by all!
