The Engagement
Saturday, September 11th, 2010
Matt had asked me to take some pictures at Woodward park that weekend for his mom, so of course being the kind of person I am I started wondering if this could be it! So I made sure I painted my nails and picked out a cute shirt. Matt and I got up the morning of and headed to the park I started getting really nervous and tried checking his pockets to see if there was a ring in his pocket. I couldn't see a ring and we started taking pictures and he hadn't asked yet. Then I started thinking it wasn't going to happen and this is when we started heading towards this beautiful bridge and the person taking the photos handed Matt the ring without me knowing. We got up on the bridge and took a few photos and I just kept posing, then I was told to turn around and look at Matt. He was down on one knee and I starting shaking. Matt then told me how much he loved me and some other things I can't remember because I was in such shock. Then he asked me to marry him, and I said YES!!!!! We took a few more pictures and headed home to find out that we had a small engagement party waiting for us with our close family members.
Our Date
Saturday, October 20th, 2012
We have picked our wedding date!
We really didn't want a summer or hot wedding so that put April- September out of the question. We also didn't want it around any holidays so November- January were out. February has both our birthday and Valentines day, so again that wasn't the right month. That leaves March or October. We then looked at all the weekends and choose one in October.
Our Colors
I have always loved these beautiful orchids that I saw a few years ago they are a dark purple and dark blue, which is where our colors are from. I have been leaning towards the bridesmaids wearing dark purple, but everything could change when I go shopping for their dresses. I also wants hints of pink and white!
Matt and I both hope you enjoying reading our blog and visiting our website!
