Tell us your love story!
Aaron and I attended the same master’s program and were in the same class together, so we became a support system for each other. A few years later, we reconnected through twitter messages. Following the exchange on social media, we had a reunion at a restaurant just a couple blocks from where we had met three years earlier and it was happily ever after from then on.
How did you choose your venue?
The owners of Springhouse Gardens are family friends. I have always thought it was so gorgeous. After seeing pictures from a previous wedding there, I knew it was exactly what I had envisioned for my wedding.
How long were you engaged?
One Year!
What elements were most important for your wedding day to you?
My #1 priority was making sure Aaron and I had a blast. If you put to much focus on making everything perfect, you’re eventually going to end up disappointed. There is no way EVERYTHING can go right! Spend the day enjoying you!
What advice would you give to other brides?
My advice comes from my mom. Your wedding is about you and your groom. Don’t spend your night trying to please everyone. Relax and make it your best day ever!
