Our love story.

He flew 10,000! 4 months until I left to get my degree in Australia. Courtney and I, best friends in High School, had recently crossed paths again. She told me Chris was ‘the’ one for me and I ‘had’ to meet him. She was right. We hit it off right away. I left a few months later. His friends (and I) told him it was crazy, but he followed his feelings and joined me in Australia. Four years later, and back in USA, I am thankful every day he took the chance!

Three important details about our Ultimate Wedding.

1. The Beach. Our relationship started by the beach in Australia – one of our favorite memories! 2. Elegance mixed with fun. Think beautiful centerpieces, but also a mariachi band & photo booth! 3. Fun food. Forget the formal dinner – we want appetizers from around the world! Who doesn’t love trying new food!

Our everyday dream day.

Waking up in a house surrounded by nature (mountains or ocean) Coffee/cuddling on a porch/deck Enjoying outdoor activity (hike, zip line, boating, etc) Pick-up ingredients to make dinner together Invite over friends for games and laughing (wine & beer may help this a bit) Spend late night in front of a fire (indoors or out)
