WEDDING DATE We got married on March 31, 2021 — It just flowed well ... 3-31-21.

THE PROPOSAL I was completely caught off guard - totally surprised. It was just Michael and I on a random Tuesday.

WEDDING PLANNING MANTRA Easy going

FAVORITE MOMENT Shortly after we were married Michael found a sand dollar...I have been looking for one since I was a little girl. It was like God was showing me that he find everything at the right moment. Mike says “all of it.”

THE DRESS I knew I didn’t want a fancy dress, I was just wanted a simple summer dress. My mom and I had gone shopping in January to find ZERO summer clothes in Ohio. I was running out of time so I ordered Multiple dresses from Lulu’s to finally find the one from Baltic Born. I loved the price point and the fit was perfect!!

BEST ADVICE Don’t stress over the small details.

THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE OUR DAY Breathtaking. Perfect. Amazing.

HE SAYS … She’s my best friend.

SHE SAYS … He’s my everything.
