How did you meet?
Justin and I lived in the same apartment complex in Fort Collins about four years ago. One day when we were both in the laundry room Justin introduced himself. I was playing on a co-ed recreational softball team at the time and we were short two male players so I invited Justin to play with us; we had a lot of fun at the post-game party (we won, of course!) and found that we had a lot of things in common. We've been together ever since!
What's your favorite memory from the wedding day?
My favorite memory from our wedding day was during the "first look." I loved seeing the look on Justin's face when he saw me for the first time.
What advice would you give to other couples planning their wedding day?
I think the best thing about our wedding was how small and relaxed we tried to make it. Neither of us like to be the center of attention so it was challenging planning a wedding that felt comfortable and intimate without sacrificing style. We ended up ignoring most of the traditional wedding expectations and tried to focus on making the day fun and easy for our closest friends and family. I think the biggest piece of advice I would give to couples planning their own weddings would be to stop stressing about the details that really just don't matter in the long run. Make it a fun experience for your bridesmaids, groomsmen, friends, families, and most importantly, yourself, by keeping your expectations realistic and staying flexible.
Did you go on a honeymoon? If so, would you recommend to others?
Because of my work schedule we haven't taken our honeymoon yet. We'll be roadtripping between San Francisco, California and Olympia, Washington for about 10 days over the summer.
