New Year's Eve Wedding at Safety Harbor Resort & Spa, Florida

WEDDING DATE We got married on December 31, 2021. Who doesn’t love a good love story and party to ring in the new year?!

THE PROPOSAL We were at Monticello and Charlottesville, VA. Jacques proposed in front of a large pond in front of the beautiful building on top of a large hillside.

WEDDING PLANNING MANTRA I just told myself, I get to marry my best friend at the end!

FAVORITE MOMENT Taking pictures at the Philippe Park (a location away from our venue) gave Jacques and I time to just be alone The two of us. It was a perfect calm before the storm.

THE DRESS Slightly traditional with a peekaboo of sexy.

BEST ADVICE Just know, things will go wrong, but it’s still the best day of your life!

THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE OUR DAY Gold. Beginnings. Love.

JACQUES SAYS …lololol, when I asked Jacques this he just closed the door. He is not the romantic type with words!

EMILY SAYS … Jacques is the best husband a girl could ask for.
