Wedding Day

Omni Amelia Island Resort

Ceremony

Fall

This past January Chelsea had gone to Costa Rica for a few weeks, she invited her cousin Cory (the best man) and while they were there Cory kept bringing up this guy Matthew Thomas. Chelsea was very confused why Cory kept talking about his best friend so much until Cory said wellll I think you guys would make a great match! Cory made sure to call Matt from Chelsea's phone before the trip ended. A month or so later Chelsea and Matt texted and made a bet over Super Bowl football, the bet was that if Chelsea won Matt would take her offshore in Florida. Of course she won and so ui did Matt (haha) they decided April was the deadline for the plans to be executed! After they met they couldn't separate! By June they were engaged in Hawaii and now a wedding in November! Fun facts: At first Matt had acted very reserved but as we got to know one another the fun goofy side came out more. One day I was laughing and very shocked he began to tell me I hadn't met hew yet and had only met Matt! I said well you've never met sea! This is how HewSea came about hence the website name! More fun facts: Cory is the one who told Chelsea but let's dig a little deeper to these two love birds encounter. Aunt Susie just might be the true brains of the operation , (Cory's mama) had called Chelsea September 23,2019 and said she was praying for the right partner for Chelsea and this was on her heart not even thinking about Matt at the time. A year later she began to think that Chelsea and Matt seem to be similar in similar places in life and most importantly both love God so her and Cory began the plot! The invite to Costa Rica was just the place for the plan to start, and is Chelsea glad she invited Cory. Matt and Chelsea are truly happy that Aunt Susie listened to the leading of the Holy Spirit in helping bring these two together!
