Give us the proposal details! When? Where? How?
We were on vacation to see my family. It was a trip filled with constant activities! On the last day, we went for a beautiful bike ride along the coast. We met my dad and his wife mid-way for a picnic of chicken salad sandwiches (romantic, right?). I was actually getting irritated at all of them because no one could hold a conversation with me! Then, they awkwardly walked away to take pictures of the water. At that point my fiance nervously stuttered out, “Will you marry me?”.

What has been your favorite experience planning the wedding?
It’s super rewarding to know my time is paying off whenever a piece falls into place! For instance the venue, photographer, or caterer.
How do you stay sane under the pressures of wedding planning?
Reminding myself that this is supposed to be fun and it doesn’t need to all be planned tomorrow!
