{How did the two of you meet?} Guy and I met by complete chance 9 years ago at, of all places, a gas station in Madison. Thanks to an outgoing friend of mine, and a die hard Auburn fan, she insisted she needed to talk to the guys with the Auburn sticker on their truck! We all hung out later that night and the rest is history!
{What is your proposal story?} Guy and I loved taking walks through his parents’ neighborhood, and at the back of their neighborhood is a barn with two horses. I used to always insist we stop so I could watch the horses and walk through the fence to pet them if they were close enough. This night we went for a late walk. When we stopped to see the horses, we decided to sit down. Guy and I had talked about marriage numerous times in the past, and he had even joked that he was just waiting for me to propose- which I always would right then! But he would always say, “Where’s my ring?” haha! But this time, out of the blue, he said, “Will you marry me?” My automatic response, thinking this was another conversation similar to those we’d had in the past was, “Well of course” then immediately after “…Wait are you serious?!” His response was, “yes, will you marry me?” as he pulled out the box with the ring! All I could do was say “YES!” and scramble to hug his neck! I didn’t even get a good look at the ring! He kept saying, “Look at the ring! Do you like it??” I love it, of course, but I was just so excited that the man of my dreams had just asked me to be his wife!
{What inspired your wedding and reception locations?} Our ceremony took place at my home church - St. Joseph Catholic Church - not to mention, I adore the simple airy beauty our church has. Our reception location was fitting with the simple industrial rustic feel that I love and felt it was more casual which reflects us well.
{What inspired your color scheme/theme/flowers?} I really loved this one bouquet I found on Pinterest. I knew I wanted a fall wedding with a very fall feel. Everything came together so perfectly thanks to all of our venders!
{How did you pick “the dress?”} I was in LOVE with the Tamsin Gown by Catherine Deane from BHLDN bridal salon. However, I felt I really wanted sleeves to finish the look perfectly. Kristin Panetta, owner of Elle James Bridal in Ridgeland, had the PEFECT Martina Liana topper in mind, and it completed the dress of my dreams!
{What’s your favorite unique accessory? Is there a story behind it?} My favorite unique accessory was my something old, borrowed, and blue! It was my grandmother’s starburst sapphire ring that my grandfather gave to her when she was 25-years-old!
{What was your favorite part of the wedding planning process?} I loved picking our major vendors and finalizing details with each of them! Especially getting the vision of our florals!
{Besides the actual wedding, what was your favorite moment of the wedding day?} Silly as it may sound, my favorite moment was the moment my new husband and I were in the car heading to the reception. Just sitting alone for the first time all day and realizing we did it! After 8.5 years together, we were finally married!
{What was your favorite surprise detail/moment about your wedding day?} My now husband has a handful of fun crazy socks that I just love and think are so fun and funny, and while I never mentioned it to him in the slightest, I secretly hoped he would ditch the “fancy” socks that you’d normally wear with a suit and wear some of his fun socks instead. Well, wouldn’t you know, during our first look he lifted his suit pants and showed me his superman socks!! It just made the moment that he included a little piece of fun in an otherwise fancy suit!
{Your favorite picture from the big day?} This question is impossible to answer! I have SO many favorites. Katelyn just went above and beyond and it took everything in me to limit our “favorites” to 50+ for our wedding album!
{The picture that represents the two of you best?} I love so many that capture us very well, but I really love one or two from our sparkler leave, because Guy has changed into his boots, untucked his shirt, and loosened his tie and is so representative of the carefree, fun, handsome man I gave my heart to!
