Summer

Our Wedding

Let's transport ourselves back to April 2021, a time when the universe decided to sprinkle a little magic into our lives. Picture this: Shannon, friends on standby nearby, with just a whisper of apprehension lingering in the air as she met Blake at Chickie's and Pete's. Now, why the jitters? Well, Shannon couldn't shake the thought that maybe Blake was hiding a secret life as a serial killer! After all, his eagerness to drive her to the Pic for her favorite wings raised a few red flags. (In reality, all Blake wanted was to treat Shannon to her favorite wings on their first date, but Shannon chose the safer option, of course.) But hey, life's full of surprises, right? Amidst the goofy antics and infectious laughter, something clicked. Blake's charm was undeniable, and Shannon's fears? Gone. Since that fateful day, our journey has been a whirlwind of love, growth, and adventures that would make even the most daring souls jealous. Together, we've chased our dreams and created a treasure trove of memories. From Disney escapades to discovering our joint obsession with all things delicious – whether it's amusement park treats or finding the perfect latte at cozy coffee joints – we've done it all. And let's not forget our favorite four-legged friend, Murphy, who's always down for a cuddle session or long car ride to nowhere. Our love story is proof that life is full of unexpected twists and turns, and sometimes, the best adventures begin with a little bit of fear and a whole lot of laughter. As we stand on the verge of forever, hand in hand, we're thrilled to invite you to join us in celebrating the start of our happily ever after. So, grab a seat, raise a glass, and let's toast to love, laughter, and the journey ahead!
