I wouldn't say it was love at first sight, but it was love. After a year of becoming best friends and falling in love without even realizing it, we finally kissed. From that moment on, we were inseparable. We dated for 5 years before getting engaged.
We were vacationing in Hilton Head Island and enjoying a predinner martini at the hotel bar before it happened. We walked arm and arm down the beach admiring the view and then he got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. He had a photographer capture every moment. We finished the evening with a delicious waterfront dinner and champagne!
June 24th is my late mother's birthday. I couldn't imagine our day without her, so we wanted to find a way to have her be a part of the celebration. We thought there was no better way than to celebrate both our love and her life! We are so excited to have our closest friends and family share in such a special day.
