“We met early on in our high school career. While it was not ‘love at first sight,’ it was the start of a long lasting friendship. After high school we went their separate ways but always stayed in touch until 2016 when our mutual love for the Rocky Mountains, and our hometown, brought us back to Sun Valley, Idaho. We went to what we thought was just us having dinner and catching up as friends, but quickly realized that after all that time the love we shared for each other was more than platonic. Fast forward 4 years and we got engaged on Christmas night while doing dishes and reminiscing about the day over a last glass of champagne before Christmas was over. There was nothing flashy or over the top about the proposal, but if you ask the groom he said the moment just felt right. We shared a long engagement (not by choice), and had to reschedule our wedding twice due to the pandemic. The second time the wedding had to be moved was somewhat of a last minute venue and date change. While this was extremely stressful, it was a testament to the love we share for each other, because everything was taken in stride. As long as we eventually made it down the aisle together, nothing else really mattered. What started out as very stressful wedding planning turned into a truly magical day…”
