Our love story

Ashley and I met freshman year in college. We became good friends and great dates. We were dancing fools at formals and costume parties. Our friendship grew but at graduation we went our separate ways. Ashley went to grad school and I worked on my career. After losing touch I reached out and we began a long-distance relationship. While Ashley was abroad for a semester I jumped at the chance to visit. I took the opportunity in Paris to get down on one knee. I knew i could never lose her again.

Three important details about our ultimate wedding.

Our Ultimate Wedding would be hosting a celebration that our guests would talk about for years. 1. It would feature a blend of healthy and gourmet comfort foods including a dessert bar with chocolate buckeyes to represent our home state and macaroons to reminisce our Paris adventure. 2. Bold colors, graphics, and inviting lighting would set the tone for the night. 3. Lastly, baskets of flip flops would welcome guests to kick off their heels and dance the night away to the live big band.

Our ultimate dream home.

We would like to create a gathering home that embodies our fun personalities; a home that immediately welcomes family and friends through aromas from the kitchen to laid-back seating. Clean lines, cozy colors, and contemporary elegance is our style. Our design aesthetic includes a mix of antiques and new modern pieces including natural woods, glass, steel and warm textures.
