WEDDING DATE We got married on April 3, 2021 — 4.3.21 just feels lucky!

THE PROPOSAL I totally surprised! He flew to Mexico and surprised me while I was on a scuba trip with 30 friends. I had no idea he was coming. And the ring he had custom made to look like coral because he knows I love the ocean!

WEDDING PLANNING MANTRA No challenges :)

FAVORITE MOMENT My favorite moment from the day was just seeing our friends at the house and feeling all the love there. And the macarons! 😂

THE DRESS I picked out my dress in ten short minutes! I knew I wanted a jewel tone, sexy but classy and simple. My friend Sara came with me and I tried on about 5 but this one just fit perfectly. I was out of the store in 15 minutes.

BEST ADVICE It's your day. Dress how you want and don't stress trying to cover every possible decoration, every dance, tradition etc...just do what feels right.

THREE WORDS THAT DESCRIBE OUR DAY Home (celebrating St. Pete as part of our ceremony)
Abundance (feeling abundant love in every second with him and our for our friends, home, life, everything)
Bliss (blissfully happy!)

HE SAYS … She's a wild, free spirited, loving, giving, soulful, driven, intelligent powerful goddess...even if she can't cook.

SHE SAYS … He is my King. Devoted, steady, brilliant, dedicated, caring, honest, and an incredible cat dad!

AND ONE MORE THING Everything fell into place perfectly and I am so grateful Heidi was there to capture our day. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
