Our Wedding

The Couple

Candace and Will met at a local dive (Bird’s Aphrodisiac Oyster Shack) where Candace would perform stand up comedy with friends.&nbsp; Will came out with his friends, Frank and Miyuki, who little did Candace know, all played kickball with many of her friends.&nbsp; Will was quiet and easy going from the start, and they went dancing later that night.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Over the course of a month or so, it became obvious to Candace that Will was more than meets the eye-thoughtful, kind, and smart.&nbsp; After about their third date, Candace and Will shared a kiss, while they packed up Will’s apartment.&nbsp; Later that afternoon, Candace told her friend Robyn she thought he could be the one- to which Robyn said&nbsp;that she probably shouldn’t say that to many people since they just met.&nbsp;Eventually Will went home with Candace to visit with her family, who up to that point insisted he was probably fake.&nbsp; Much to everyone’s delight, he was not.Almost a year later, Candace and Will took a trip to Nashville.&nbsp; After coming home from Nashville, Candace had decided she was 100% certain Will was the one.&nbsp; Will on the other hand, took things slow.&nbsp;He knew Candace was a little crazy in her own way, however that was one thing he loved about her.&nbsp; Candace is and has always been a very passionate person&nbsp;and that was just a&nbsp;small factor that drove Will towards Candace.&nbsp;A few months after, Candace and Will decided to move in together where their love has only grown.&nbsp; There has been no looking back from that point on and it has&nbsp;lead all of us to November 9th where we are excited for everyone to join us on our big day!

Our Story

The Proposal

The Back Story 

The weeks leading up to Christmas 2018 were busy.&nbsp; Candace thought Will had been acting stranger than usual and that something may be in the works while they visited Candace’s family.&nbsp;But, a trip to Orlando came and went with no proposal.

The following week,&nbsp;Will planned to attend Candace's work&nbsp;Christmas&nbsp;party and meet her new&nbsp;co-workers.&nbsp; The day before the&nbsp;party, Will decided they should&nbsp;exchange gifts since they couldn't spend Christmas day together.&nbsp; She&nbsp;was sure Will was going to propose at the gift exchange, but she was wrong again.&nbsp; At&nbsp;that point, Candace decided she had been wrong all along and it wasn't happening any time soon.&nbsp;

The DAY

The day of Candace's work party&nbsp;the weather was not cooperating, but it was decided that after the&nbsp;party&nbsp;they would go look at Christmas lights in&nbsp;Dorothy B. Oven Park.&nbsp;

While&nbsp;having a great time at the party, they&nbsp;stayed much longer than intended and&nbsp;the weather outside began to worsen.&nbsp;Candace suggested that they should just drive through the park to look at the lights. However, Will convinced her&nbsp;that they wouldn’t get to see&nbsp;all the lights in the park.&nbsp;



While walking through the park in the pouring rain,&nbsp;Candace and Will stopped at several spots to take pictures of all the lights- just like she always does.&nbsp; As they came around the back of the park, Will told Candace to take a picture of the nutcrackers he said weren’t there before.&nbsp; As she&nbsp;turned around, she found Will on one knee in the pouring rain.&nbsp; Will asked Candace to be his wife with a beautiful ring that had been passed down from his grandmother.&nbsp; (And she dropped her phone and umbrella, ensuring that they were soaking wet.)



Although Will specifically picked that night because it was supposed to be busy for the park, and they would be able to have someone take their photos, they pretty much had the park to themselves.&nbsp; But right after she&nbsp;said “YES”, a couple came around the corner and agreed to take their photo- still in the pouring rain!&nbsp;







Walking through the park to see the Christmas lights will be a tradition Candace and Will continue for as long as possible.&nbsp;

Visiting Central Florida gives you the advantage of picking from many popular beach destinations that are an easy day trip. To the east, you can easily visit Daytona Beach, or the quieter New Smyrna Beach. To the west, you can visit Clearwater or St. Pete beaches as well. Feel free to ask us for ideas.&nbsp; We prefer the beaches on the Gulf Coast since the water tends to be warmer.&nbsp;
