Our love story

Timing is everything. We met online. I didn’t know what I was looking for but thought I would when I met him. He said hello but I took my time responding. He lived out of state and had been married before. It seemed all wrong. As I had done in the past, I made up all the reasons to walk away. But then I got to know him. He was different. Conversations were easy and I longed for more. We met, relocated and fell in love. Then it came to me.. she (his ex-wife) kept him until I was ready.

Three important details about our ultimate wedding.

Maybe the beauty isn't in the details. Like every bride, I’ve spent countless hours planning the details to make it perfect.The premature death of my father & absence of extended family due to distance and frailty of those needing to travel, make it bitter sweet. It’s the simple things that make a wedding special–family & friends. Celebrating in our love, together. An ultimate wedding for us would be spending it with those we love most in NY. Of course, with all the‘details’to make it beautiful.

Our ultimate dream home.

Mountain retreat– a blend of nature & cozy comfort. Full of love & laughter. Entertaining a must, both inside & out. Cooking from a large kitchen, the heart of any Italian home. A great room adorned with comfy furniture, photos, and accents to create a place to re-energize.Lavish bed & bath retreats. Quiet moments on our patio, grilling or sipping beverages with friends by the warmth of a fire.Celebrating life & enjoying the simple things–sunsets,snowfalls,wildlife,our dogs. Welcome to our home.
