Here at United With Love, we have a special place in our hearts for our military servicemen and servicewomen. On Memorial Day we pause to remember those who gave their lives in service of our country, and we thought we’d help commemorate the day in our own special way – with a lovely military engagement session from Melissa Arlena Photography. We’ve already shown that we’re suckers for a groom in uniform, and Allison and John are a seriously adorable couple planning a summer wedding.
From Melissa: Allison and John got engaged over the holidays and are quickly planning their wedding this summer while John finishes his Marine Corps training and awaits orders. Allison flew in from their home state of Indiana to visit with John and set up an engagement session! They opted to have John wear his dress blues and Allison found the perfect dress to match. I love how they incorporated his military uniform into the session!!
Congratulations Allison and John!
