“Austin and I met in 2021 while working for the same company in different states. We worked many offsite events together for the first year and eventually started a friendship. After a few months getting to know each other and finally living in the same state, our love story began. Flash forward to eight years later and we were engaged. Within moments of receiving the blessing from my dad, the proposal was underway. Austin popped the question in the doorway of our home for all the neighbors to see. He caught me totally off guard and I was completely shocked!” – Emily
Advice From the Couple
“Our advice for anyone planning a wedding is to take some time in the beginning to really think about your vision for the day. Look for vendors with whom you have a connection and feel comfortable. Walk them through your ideas and make sure you are on the same page. Trust your vendors to make your vision comes to life and, if the budget permits, hire a wedding coordinator. They are priceless. Most of all, have fun! Enjoy the process, have fun tasting cake, meeting vendors, picking flowers; this is quality time with the love of your life planning the biggest day of your lives!” – Emily
