Brianna and Garrett

Garrett and I met at a Halloween Party in our junior year of high school (2008). It  was instant chemistry and truly love at first sight! We became inseparable from that day forward and made it through two years of long distance in college. Garrett proposed  on Christmas Eve of 2016. It was our little tradition to get Starbucks  lattes, put on some Michael Buble, and drive around to look at Christmas  lights. I thought the evening was over when we pulled up to his parent's  house- but that's when he lit up a custom sign that said "Brianna, Will You Marry Me?" Our friends and family came out to surprise us with champagne toasts in hand.
 
Since we started dating on 1/10/09, we decided to double up and get married  on 1/20/18 at one of our favorite beaches. Garrett's family grew up going to The Resort at Longboat Key Club each summer, and they had taken us there several times as well. It was a beautiful overcast beach ceremony, just like a watercolor painting, my dream come true!
