Our love story.

He had planned a surprise anniversary party for his parents, and she got invited as a new friend of his mom’s from work (that his mom had dropped a few hints about introducing him to). The surprise was on Justin and Jaelyn when they met each other for the first time that night and hit it off over karaoke – and three years later are now engaged! It was one time he actually admitted his mom was right!

Three important details about our Ultimate Wedding.

It’s not about having the “perfect” wedding… it’s ALL about making the perfect memory – for us and our guests! Our Ultimate Wedding will be a mixture of traditional and unique in a natural setting on the mountain in Vail, will focus on a GREAT time for all of our friends and family, and will be overflowing with little reminders anywhere we can fit them (favorite music, favorite memories) of why we are perfect for each other!

Our everyday dream day.

Our day would consist of waking up to the sun shining, taking a morning hike with our dog, coming home to decorate around our new house, then sharing a yummy meal we cooked together with a glass of wine. Jaelyn will play Justin some songs on the guitar, and in any good day, there’s always time for a Wii showdown too! After that, we’ll snuggle, tease, laugh, laugh LAUGH, talk about our dreams… and wonder for the billionth time how we got so lucky to have found the perfect person to spend the rest of our lives with.
