Kristin and Jason

Jason popped the question on a beach in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. From there, the planning began. The goal was to create our dream wedding, and incorporate fun, elegance, and vibrant colors. With the magnificent help of our wedding coordinator, family, and friends, we succeeded beyond our imagination.

After booking venues, finding the perfect dress didn’t take long. I couldn’t wait to walk down the aisle! When I finally did, the moment I turned the corner in the church and saw Jason waiting for me, I realized that what I looked like didn’t matter, what mattered most was our exchange of vows.

After the ceremony, we gathered on the trolley and headed to our reception at the Stoney Creek Inn. It was convenient for guests with onsite accommodations, and it was unique. After putting many heads together, we kept the cocktail area full of the rustic theme, yet transformed the ballroom with bright pink lighting up the walls, black linens, and pink flowers covering the tables to set the theme. Also, for table decorations, we tied in our love for fishing with “Hooked for Life” fishing lures that converted to key chains for our guests.

Everything from the weather to the food and music went as planned, and the day turned out perfectly. We never once saw the dance floor empty, and to this day, we still hear what a great time our guests had celebrating our day with us. It was undeniably the best day of our lives, and we are still living our “Happily Ever After!”
