We met at a baseball game in the town I was attending college. He happened to show up too and there wasn\u2019t a huge crowd. So we sat by each other in the warm March day. I was there to watch the cute guys, he was there for the baseball. I pretended to understand what was happening and he probably knew that I had no clue! But he stuck around until the end of the game with me, even though I had felt my legs burning in the sunshine, I didn\u2019t want to part with him yet. I asked him over to play with my dog and my dog immediately loved him. That\u2019s when I knew he was different. He made me laugh and feel beautiful from the moment we met. I\u2019ll never forget the feeling of butterflies and couldn\u2019t stop smiling. It was worth the sunburn!<\/p>\n<p>Celeste<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Celeste and Brandon have cozied right up to life as a married couple. In the spirit of equality and love, so clearly seen in their wedding day, they split the day-to-day responsibilities of their lives together right down the middle. {Taking turns cooking and doing the dishes, with Celeste usually doing the laundry, and Brandon usually taking out the trash.}\u00a0Full of respect for each other!<\/p>\n<p>For the fun stuff: every day feels like a celebration now that they&#8217;re married! But still, getting out of the routine is healthy. Their favorite married-life tradition is going out on the town together a few times a month. Sometimes just to a movie &#8212; what matters is getting dressed up, getting out, and getting to enjoy each other&#8217;s company!<\/p>\n<p>Celeste and Brandon made a fun trip up to Colorado recently, for a wedding nonetheless! &#8220;I<span style=\"font-weight:400;\">t was so fun to watch others tie the knot and be so happy on their big day. We reminisced of our own big day and loved just being able to be together to enjoy this amazing adventure with others!!&#8221; Celeste says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>No major life changes have ricocheted through their life together yet, but emphasis on yet. They&#8217;re moving to a different state soon, and buying their first house together! New Mexico will be sad to see them go, but we&#8217;re grateful to have had them here this long.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to you both for sharing your wedding day, post-vows life, and for spreading love wherever you go!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11377\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingcollectivenm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/celeste-brandon.jpg\" alt=\"Celeste + Brandon.jpeg\" width=\"3861\" height=\"2574\" \/><\/p>\n<h6>Engagement Photo:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cristycross.com\"> Cristy Cross Photography<\/a><\/h6>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" size-full wp-image-10790 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingcollectivenm.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/1_formore.jpg\" alt=\"Perfect Wedding Guide wedding planning design inspiration budget floral bouquet arrangement New Mexico Albuquerque greenery Santa Fe flowers natural organic local\" width=\"500\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-top-left-radius:2px;border-top-right-radius:2px;border-bottom-right-radius:2px;border-bottom-left-radius:2px;text-indent:20px;width:auto;padding:0 4px 0 0;text-align:center;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:bold;font-stretch:normal;font-size:11px;line-height:20px;font-family:'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;color:#ffffff;background-image:url('image\/svg+xml;
