Our Wedding

Trever and I met on my 23rd birthday in St. Petersburg, Florida. My younger sister and friends planned a huge birthday bash for me at a night club named The Bishop. Lucky for me, Trever was invited to the birthday bash through a mutual friend. After being introduced to each other something immediately clicked. We spent the rest of the evening talking, dancing and getting know each other. We have been together ever since... he will always be the best birthday gift I have ever received. Now when I look back at pictures from that amazing night I know it was love at first sight.

How we met...

Trever and I planned a Hollywood themed going away party two days before our move to Santa Monica, California. Trever kept telling me to prepare a speech for the party. I spent the week prior to the party thinking the speech idea was a joke and so I had nothing prepared. Once my short, sweet and unprepared speech was given at the party Trever grabbed my hand, dropped to one knee and asked me to marry him.... and of course I said yes!!!!
