By the wedding day, Liv and Peyton will have been together for over seven years. They have grown up alongside each other, serving as each other's biggest cheerleaders, supporting and encouraging one another in their walks with the Lord, and ultimately being more joyful and goofy than they ever imagined possible. From both of their first ever kiss in Peyton's front yard, to four years at different colleges, to Olivia melting into Peyton's arms as he was down on one knee, these two have learned that faith, hope and love remain, but the greatest of these really is love.
