It was a gorgeous day…..blue skies and tiny little fulffy clouds in the sky……and She glowed coming down the aisle with her blusher over her face and the sun streaming in behind her!

“(My birthday is on Valentines Day) I was at school and it was a weekday. I was recovering from the exciting night of my 21st birthday. We went to college 2 1/2 hours away from each other, so I wasn’t expecting to see him at all on my birthday. I was really bummed out! Jim texted me and said he was doing his homework and I was laying down to take a nap! I heard a knock at the front door and went to answer it. IT WAS HIM! He tricked me!!! He had 2 dozen roses and a pink gift bag. I went to open up the present and there were chocolate candy letters in it and he told me to unscramble them! They spelled, “MARRY ME”? When I realized what was going on he got down on his knee and proposed! It was ADORABLE! “-Alexis


“Jim said I love you first. I went to visit Jim and my sister at Penn State and I convinced Jim to park his car outside of his dorm room, because I didn’t feel like walking (lol) Little did we know he got a boot on his car the next morning, because of his many unpaid parking tickets and my laziness! I felt AWFUL! I went to leave to come back to Indiana that day and while I was saying goodbye to him he said he was falling in love with me! It turned out to be a better day after all! 🙂 for me at least.” -Alexis

Their wedding party was amazing….and good lookin! 🙂

The reception was held outside in a tent at the Mansion at Maple Heights. Whites, silvers and beautiful pops of purple!!

BA-LING!!!

I always cry during the toasts! <3


The first dance. They surprised each other with voice overs during the song….there wasn’t a dry eye in the place. Such a romantic and sweet memory to have!!


The parent dances…..yep, I cried then too. I don’t even know why I put makeup on that morning!! haha!


This…….this really made me cry. I think it’s because I too have a special bond with my Grandfather and seeing her surprise him with a special dance with a voiceover on why she loved him and thought he was special…..YEP I lost it…..and so did everyone else!! <3

But then………….the celebration begins!! And boy oh boy did they know how to cut a rug!!!
