Erin & Jonathan

How Jonathan Knew He Had Found the One

“I knew Erin was the perfect person for me pretty early on. Never in my life had I felt more comfortable or more appreciated for what and who I am until I met her. I always wanted to be with her and when I wasn’t, she was the first person I wanted to share my day with.”

Ringing in the New Year

“A formal black-tie affair was exactly what we wanted for our wedding and what better day to throw such a party than New Year’s Eve? The evening centered around fine wine, an abundance of remarkable food, and a luxury bar. There was live music and dancing, glitz and glam décor, and most importantly, love and laughter!”

Erin’s Favorite Wedding Memory

“Watching Jonathan’s face as I made my way down the aisle. I could see the happiness beaming from his eyes, and it was the best feeling because it mirrored exactly how I felt. I’ll never forget that moment.”

Tip for Engaged Couples

“Take time to soak in all the love and happiness surrounding you. It’s so easy to get wrapped up in the whirlwind of the day. It goes by so quickly!”
