Our Wedding

We met in January of 2017 through Brittney and Cody Garrett. He had known Cody since childhood, and I&nbsp;met Brittney at work four years ago. Chris recently moved back to Muncie from Indianapolis. At first, we were just friends. I remember vividly one of the first nights we hung out that he actually let me play ping pong against him, even though I have ZERO hand eye coordination skills. As the weeks passed, many of our mutual friends began to hint that we should start talking, but we both denied it for a while. But one Saturday at bowling----yes bowling, he bought me&nbsp;a drink and I began to see him in a new way.....(it may have been the cheap Bud Light). After that, we began snapchatting constantly, and eventually started talking. I&nbsp;went on a two week vacation in March and April to New York City and Mexico, and the thing I remember the most is talking to Chris. On the cruise I would pray that a snapchat would go through! (I did enjoy the beach as well :) )&nbsp;When I returned, we began to see each other consistently, and by May 3rd I convinced him to be my boyfriend. We ended up buying a home in Muncie on June 27th (my 25th birthday). We were excited to start our lives together with Hazel and Indie! I&nbsp;knew that marriage was in our future, and began pressuring him for a ring around October. He completely surprised me with a dream proposal in Indianapolis on November 17th. We are so excited to be getting married exactly a year later on November 17th, 2018. We can't wait to continue adding to our story for years and years to come.&nbsp;

Our Story

Details

Bobby Ridge

Emma is my youngest sister, and such an important person in my life. Even though she is the youngest of five very strong personalities, she has held her own very well. I&nbsp;absolutely love her fiery personality, her incredibly bright mind, and the fact that she is there for me no matter what. I am so honored to have her stand next to me on my big day!

Emma Mantica

Lauren is my younger sister, and one of my best friends. She will be marrying her fiance, Matt, in September. Lauren is one of the strongest people I know. She will always have your back no matter what, and will fight in your corner!&nbsp;I love her so much, and am so happy to have her standing by me.&nbsp;

Matt Davis

Megan is my younger sister. She has one of the biggest hearts I know. Ever since I&nbsp;can remember, she has been taking care of everyone she surrounds herself with. I am so incredibly lucky to have her helping me plan because she has an impeccable sixth&nbsp;sense for detail and decor. I am so happy to have her standing next to me.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Megan Mantica

Emily is my cousin and one of my best friends! Being only five months apart, we spent most of our family time together. I can't imagine her not being in my life. We have lived over 600 miles apart our whole lives, but every time we are together we pick up where we left off. I'm so so happy she has agreed to stand next to me on my wedding day!

Cody Garrett

Brittney and I met at work teaching at Daleville Elementary School. She quickly became one of my best friends, and eventually introduced me to Chris!&nbsp;(Bonus points!) I was blessed to stand next to her as she married Cody, and am so lucky that she is standing next to me as I&nbsp;marry Chris!&nbsp;

Peter Mantica

Jacquelyn was my college roommate for three years at Ball State University. We met freshman year, and ended up rooming together in the dorms our sophomore year together. (Lord help us!) We were both in Chi Omega together, and ended up moving in to a house with four other girls our Junior and Senior years. I&nbsp;couldn't imagine a better person to live with and to share my college memories with. I'm so so happy to have her standing next to me.&nbsp;

Jacquelyn Cates

I have known Lindsay since Kindergarten. I don't remember a special moment or memory throughout elementary, middle, or high school without her. I am so incredibly blessed that we have kept our friendship, and that she will be standing next to me at my wedding!
