Retroactive blog - Our Wedding

Britton and I were married at Old Port Yacht Club in North Palm Beach, Florida on March 8th, 2008. It was a dream come true for both of us as our hearts smiled and tears flowed from our eyes. We feel so blessed to have found each other and to have a love that is so deep that we are constantly moved and amazed. We are very grateful to our family and friends who were there to witness our marriage and to those who sent us their heartfelt thoughts and prayers.

Many details of this day were special to us. The arch that we dreamed up was made structurally sound by my dad and Britton, and decorated by Foster and Leslie Rodwell. The center pieces were designed by us, made by Britton and Foster, and fulfilled our desire to bring Folly Beach sand to our wedding. The temporary picture in our signing frame was us on Folly Beach (the location where Britton first said "I love you" and where he proposed in June 2007). The chocolate favors by the door were designed and made by us during several late nights in Columbia. We made our programs, wrote our vows, and laid out every detail of the ceremony. My dear friend, Janna Sayer, sang "Lost In This Moment." When the day came, it was the love and effort that went into these details that made it feel so special to us. Thanks to all who helped!

We would like to thank our wedding party for standing up with us on our big day. Thanks to my MOH would had enough tissues for the bride AND the groom! Thanks to Janna for adding an unforgettable touch to our ceremony, it meant SO much to us! Thanks to our officiant, who made our ceremony one of comfort and joy.

And a special thanks to my parents for giving us this wonderful fairytale day! Your love for each other is inspiring, your love for us is breathtaking!
