The first time I met Chris and Angel, I was awed by there love for each other. I know, when you are planning a wedding, you just expect that, but these two were so smitten with each other, the devotion was palpable! I dont think through the entire meeting Chris took his eyes from Angel- it was a beautiful thing to watch. Well, their wedding day was no different. Both were so excited to say “I do”. Chris had planned a surprise for Angel and her family- a horse drawn carriage ride to bring them to the venue- he made each detail perfect for his future wife. Of course, Angel was the same way, and planned every detail of their wedding to fit their romantic nature.
Club Continental was the perfect backdrop to the wedding- a beautiful ivy colored house on the St. Johns River- it screamed Southern Charm and romance. Just down the street from the park where Chris proposed, when the two found the venue they knew this was the perfect place for the nuptials. From the romantic love notes, to the first dance, these two were enthralled with each other, and knew how blessed they were to be together- its why I love this job!
Thank you for making me part of your love story- enjoy!
Give me your scoop…
How did you two meet? She is a hair stylist- and he needed a cut- it was love at first site!
How did he propose? Chris proposed at “the park” on a bench overlooking the St.Johns River. He sat beside me and read the book How Much I love You by Felicia Rose Querido. Shaking,trembling and crying he got down on one knee and proposed. He said ” I love you as the rivers love the rain as the flowers love the sun,and the shore loves the ocean”.
