I hadn&rsquo;t seen <span class=\"il\">Zach<\/span> since the day before and it was crazy how much I missed him. I looked forward to that moment the entire day. He had his back towards me on a long dirt road where I walked toward him very anxiously. I felt so many emotions in that moment. It was torture for a moment when I tapped him on the shoulder to turn around as he had to collect himself. But when he turned around and held me, the world slipped away and for that moment, he was my whole world. No one else was around, I had no idea the photographers were even there capturing it all.<span class=\"il\">Zach<\/span> was the only person in the world to me during those emotional moments. We held each other for who knows how long and I knew that I would soon make this man my husband for the rest of my life.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Wedding Team:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photography &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.darlingphoto.net\/\">Darling Photography<\/a><br>\nVenue &ndash;&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.coolidgefamilyfarm.com\/\">Coolidge Family Farm<\/a><br>\nFloral Design &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/harmonsbartons.com\/\">Harmon&rsquo;s &amp; Barton&rsquo;s Florist<\/a><br>\nCake &ndash; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/SweetCreationsByKarenMaine\">Sweet Creations by Karen<\/a><br>\nDJ &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.maineplatinumdj.com\/\">Double Platinum Celebrations<\/a><br>\nHair &amp; Makeup Artist &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jessicacmua.com\/\">Jessica Candage<\/a><br>\nWedding Dress &ndash; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kimlanecouture.com\/home.html\">Kim Lane Couture<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Congrats to Megan and Zach on their laid-back Maine wedding at&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.coolidgefamilyfarm.com\/\">Coolidge Family Farm<\/a>!
