HOW DID YOU TWO MEET?

Jonathan and I met while we were both attending Mississippi College. We served together in the Morrison Height’s College Ministry.

THE PROPOSAL

He proposed after taking me to a nice dinner. We went on a walk after dinner to a location where we often go on “adventures.” When he proposed, he asked if I would join him on a new adventure, marriage.

PREPARING FOR MARRIAGE

We attended pre-marital counseling for several months during our engagement. Ultimately, we just tried to be as communicative as possible and put each other first.

WEDDING MOMENTS

We had a bubble getaway, and the bubbles we used were extra sticky and wouldn’t pop. As we were leaving, we could barely see through the sea of bubbles, and everyone left with some attached to their hair and clothes. It made for super cute pictures! Another fun one from our reception: I’m a huge Taylor Swift fan, so when “Love Story” came on, all my friends rushed to the dance floor, and we were able to put on a performance! I also thought our ceremony itself was super sweet. The officiant preached a sermon on the love of God and ways to implement that same love in marriage. It was some of the best wisdom I’ve received for how to be a Godly wife.
