Crate and Barrel's Ultimate Wedding Contest

Our love story.

Single girl bumps into old friend. How romantic. Girl gets confident and starts to talk to guy, but notices guy has flowers in his hand. How naïve. Girl starts to abandon awkward situation and walks away. How foolish. Guy explains that flowers are for his mother and begins to court girl. How skillful. That day’s exchange turns into a summer of new love, an autumn of misunderstandings, a winter of forgiveness, a spring of confusion, seasons of long distance, a month of breakup to makeup, and a weekend on which they would promise to love to one another forever.

Three important details about our Ultimate Wedding.

Venue- must be able to seamlessly integrate indoor and outdoor elements. Music- live jazz band for a classy experience. Food- pleasing to the palate and paired with great wine.

Our everyday dream day.

Here is a simple equation that explains our situation: 2 undergrad degrees + 1 master’s degree + 1 master’s in progress = a wedding ceremony with no chairs and a reception with peppermints and water. Just kidding, but you get the picture, right? Our everyday dream day would be any day without student loan debt dictating our lifestyle, especially when it comes to our wedding.
