Susan and Raul took their dog, Cora to Boone, NC to see the fall foliage during peak week. Susan brought her camera and Raul let her take tons of pictures of him and Cora along the scenic hikes. The last night of the trip, they hiked up to one of Susan's favorite spots to catch the sunset at the summit. When they were about to hike down for the night, Raul pulled Susan aside saying he had a gift for her. With Cora's leash in one hand, Raul pulled a small black box out of his bag and held it out to Susan in his other hand, telling her how much he likes spending time with her and Cora. Then he asked Susan to marry him, she said yes, while ugly crying, and they hiked back down in the dark.

It's hard to say. Cora loves everyone, but she adores Raul. They spend a lot of time together, laying on the couch gazing at each other. But Susan feeds Cora and takes her to the vet, and the groomer, walks her every day, and takes her to doggie training school. But Raul is more liberal with giving out treats. So, probably. Hard to tell with the new dog, but he tends to follow Susan around more. But now that they have a new pup, Bane, the adoration is split more evenly.

#TeAmoAndriano #LoveSpeaks

No. Anyone who knows Susan, knows she loves to take pictures. While she wants everyone to go crazy at the reception with taking pics of each other and the day (see polaroid cameras near the guest book and QR code on the tables), Susan and Raul ask that you be respectful of the photographers and not impede them during the ceremony. Please keep your phones put away during the ceremony. If you do take pictures after the ceremony, please use the hashtags #TeAmoAndriano and #LoveSpeaks or the QR codes framed on the tables so that the couple can enjoy the pics you take as well. Thanks!

Yes! Go nuts!! Please use our hashtags/ scan the QR codes on the tables so we can celebrate the day with you! 🍾🥂

If your invitation specifically states that your kids are welcome to come, then yes! But otherwise, please leave them at home.

You can wear whatever you like! Hawaiian shirts and anything floral patterned are strongly encouraged or really whatever you feel most comfortable in! We just want the day to be fun and focused on love and laughter, and we'll just be happy you made it. Just don't be the a-hole that wears white to a wedding, grow up.

Plenty of parking! The venue is huge but there will be signs up directing everyone where to go, and there will be a designated space for everyone to park.

Duh, and it'll be delicious. The ceremony will be held right outside of the reception area so everyone can walk on in and snack/drink right after.

We're hoping to have it outdoors, depending on the weather. The end of March should be warm enough for it to be held outside, but we're all adults, if you think you'll be cold, bring a jacket. The reception will be indoors, though, only a few feet away from the ceremony.

Beer and wine will be provided! And if you don't feel like drinking, no pressure, there will be Lemonade, Water, Tea, etc. provided as well.

Our wedding vision has been lovingly referred to as a "Wildflower Wedding." It'll be a Secret Garden party esque, whimsical, floral, lovey dovey time. As excited as we are to be surrounded by flowers and the mountains, the most important part of our day will be eating and laughing and being loved and getting to celebrate with all of our guests.

We ask that everyone show up 15-30 minutes before the start of the ceremony to get settled and allow time for parking. Late arrivals may not be permitted to enter, in order to prevent disruptions to the ceremony.
