The wedding weekend of Destiny and Justin was one to remember. This precious couple had waited long enough to finally be married, and the weekend of February 17th was perfect. 

The weekend began with a beautiful rehearsal dinner. Many of Destiny's family members spoke such wonderful things about the couple. It was evident that though they were related to Destiny, everyone who spoke felt like Justin was the absolute perfect partner for her. Even one friend made a large scrapbook with letters from everyone and photos of years past that demonstrated how much everyone loved and supported Destiny and Justin. 

The next day began early as the girls got ready in the bridal suite. Justin and his crew also arrived early, ensuring everyone was ready for photos and such when their time came. Destiny was very close to her family. Therefore, she had her first looks with her dad and both sets of grandparents. Destiny also had a first look with her bridesmaids. After all those sweet moments, the time came for Justin to see his bride. It was such a beautiful moment seeing each other for the first time on that long-awaited day. They read letters to each other that made joyful tears fall. Justin's father had passed away before their wedding day, but he was beautifully remembered. Destiny gifted Justin a thoughtful gift, a pen that went under his boutonniere with photos of family members who had passed, including his father. A photo stand stood next to Justin during the ceremony with a picture of his dad. The moments that led up to the ceremony were filled with joy, excitement, and love for everyone involved. 

The ceremony couldn't have been more lovely. A large wooded and floral cross stood at the altar where they were married. Justin and Destiny exchanged vows and rings in front of a packed room of family and friends. During the ceremony, they also lit a unity candle, symbolizing that they were now one. Everything about the ceremony was such a picture of the love and dedication between Justin and Destiny. 

The reception that followed was another remarkable aspect of an already fantastic day. The room was filled with delicious food, the bar had drinks flowing, and the incredible "MR. & MRS. BRUNSON" sign made the perfect centerpiece for people to celebrate. Justin and Destiny had their first dances, including a dance for Destiny and her mother. They cut the cakes and then mingled and danced the night away. A tunnel of sparklers escorted them to a vintage Ford Mustang as they left their perfect day. 

Justin and Destiny were married on February 17, 2024, at Castle Hill in Oxford, Mississippi.
