Give us the proposal details! When? Where? How?
James proposed on our friend’s farm just outside of Ottawa, Ontario. We went for lunch and James took me into the barn to look at their newest addition. As we walked down the barn, James was telling me how this was the place when he realized he loved me. Wendy, who was the farmer’s wife, was sneaking up behind us as James got down on one knee and proposed! Wendy was right there taking candid photos of the whole thing happening. I could not believe he had proposed to me. At that moment I shouted, “Yes!” Wendy set up an engagement shoot right after with bales of hay, flowers, tractors, old trucks and their new baby calf.
What has been your favorite experience planning the wedding?
Surprisingly, the planning. We are having a destination wedding!
How do you stay sane under the pressures of wedding planning?
To be organized and to not sweat the small stuff, it will all work out when the day arrives. As long as I have James along with our closest friends and family, it will be a great day.
