We went to high school together. I the bride graduated in 2014, and rick the groom graduated in 2012. We later reconnected in 2015 through social media. Rick was in a motorcycle accident shortly after we got together and he spent almost 4 months in the hospital learning how to use his strength to walk again. I never missed a day, throughout the hardship we both knew we needed each other, forever. We began talking about marriage and children and I always said I wanted my proposal to embarrass me. I never knew it was coming, and ill never forget it. It was the summer of 2018 my first vacation week at wildwood NJ, my fiance’s childhood vacation spot. As we get to the beach I asked to get photos before I got all messy and sweaty. I got woken up out of my sleep for “pictures”. I walk to the shore and my sister-in-law asks what is that? She points to the ocean. It was a screened message boat with a quote “Kayla will you be my wife & Camden’s stepmom”? I turn around my fiance was on his knee and there was a photographer capturing it all. 

We knew we wanted a small and intimate wedding. We find that we are beachy, modern, romantic, rustic, etc all in one. The blue color we chose just makes perfect sense for its location. One of the most important lessons that I learned from planning a wedding is that I should of hired a wedding planner before I did anything else!
