True love is where you find it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cheers, you two.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s to a life time of health, happiness and hearth fires. If you&#8217;re half as happy as your kids are about this you will have the happiest marriage on Earth. I think the kids may have fallen in love before you two did.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Seriously. These are two families who are meant to be joined. Their parents are nice, their kids are nice, their grandchildren are nice&#8230;and they are nice. And they&#8217;re all spectacular looking, too. Actually, now I kind of hate them. Oh, like anyone could hate them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Rick and Chelle are wonderful, caring people with great families and friends who love them. The kind of people who make sure you&#8217;re OK when things are hard and celebrate with you when things are good. The kind who make sure everyone&#8217;s wine glasses and plates are full, and make sure everyone around them is taken care of.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So I cried some happy tears into my champagne and wished them well as hard as I could..I mean, we all knew there would be crying.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Phone Maid of Honor Shay provided suitably blurry photos of the event.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Kyle said it best on Facebook: &#8220;You both deserve the best.
