We have been neighbors since fourth grade. We grew up next to each other and played with each other for countless summers and snow days. We dated briefly in junior high. We ended the relationship but remained best friends. However, we lost touch right before college and didn't talk for over four years. In the summer of 2006 we got back in touch, and our feelings for each other were still there. It only took us a second to realize we were meant to be together.

We are having a beautiful outdoor summer evening wedding at an English garden called Kensington Gardens. It will be a large wedding because we have a lot of family, and even more great friends. Because it will be an evening wedding, it will be a bit more formal than a usual summer wedding. The ceremony and reception will both take place at Kensington Gardens in Gig Harbor, WA.

On August 6th we will begin our Honeymoon and will return on the 15th. We will be flying to Fiji to spend seven days in total island bliss. We are looking forward to time on the beach with some fun island activities in between. We can't wait to take our first official vacation as "husband and wife."

Thank you to everyone who has been there for us. We would like to thank all of our friends and family for being so wonderful. We wouldn't be here today without you. Thank you for the never ending support and love. We are so grateful to have such great people in our lives. You all have helped shape who we are. We love you!
