Our Wedding

<p>Shawn and Emily's love story is one that was meant to be. Little did they know it at the time but they had actually been at the same place multiple times throughout the years. So the night they met at a mutual friend's event it was meant to be. Shawn and Emily quickly became an inseparable pair. They have traveled across the country from Spokane, Washington to Orlando, Florida. Their first official date was to Joe's Farm Grill in Gilbert as well as meeting her mother (not planned LOL). They have both been able to share both of their passions with each other. Emily has learned some new fishing lingo while Shawn has been able to travel and see new cities! On a regular date night you can find the pair at Oreganos, eating their cheesy garlic bread and the pizza cookie split half chocolate chip and half macadamia nut. If you have met one of the pair then you have met the other. They are both goofy personalities so they are always the life of the party! If you were to ask each of them what their favorite thing about the other, Shawn would say that what he loves most about Emily is her compassion towards anyone in her life. Emily loves that Shawn is genuine and just so kind-hearted. He is such a thoughtful person and takes care of those he loves. They both mentioned that the other one is one another's rock and person. They are so thankful for their families that are supportive through all of their adventures and are so excited that you have been invited to join them on their special day.</p>

Hello hello! My name is Rachel Turano, Emily and I go way back…to partying it up in Tucson, Arizona! Emily and I were roommates for two years at the U of A and best buds ever since. From binge watching the Twilight saga to road-trips up to flagstaff, we created so many memories together. I met Shawn when he was doing charity work at the children’s center…just kidding…All jokes aside, it doesn’t take a genius to realize that Shawn and Emily have something special. I had the pleasure of hosting the happy couple whilst they visited my husband and I in Nashville, TN. I really got to know Shawn and see what a huge Pokémon nerd he was. Kidding, I got to see how considerate and devoted he was to my best friend. I couldn’t be happier for the two of them and I am greatly looking forward to the big day. Congrats to the future Mr. and Mrs. Barrowdale!

Hi! I’m Darian Morris. I’m currently working as a medical scribe in Gilbert, AZ while I apply for PA schools. I actually met Emily back in highschool when we were both in Mr. Hayward’s Sports Med class, but we became closer once we got into college and eventually lived together for 2 years. When I first heard about Emily and Shawn’s first meeting, it sounded like fate. And that is exactly what is was! I’ve had the pleasure of seeing them together many times over the years and their love is so evident. I am so excited to be apart of this wedding and see where their love continues to take them!
