Real Couples: Jennifer & Artie
/Meet Jennifer & Artie! Words can not describe how much I love these two. Maybe I'm a *bit* biased, but I really think I'm blessed with the best couples. You'll see a question below that asks who will cry first on their wedding day. Well, it will probably be me. Read more about them below...
Names:
Jennifer & Artie
Where's home?:
Houston, Texas
Why a Houston Wedding?
We are actually getting married south of Houston in Galveston, Texas. Galveston holds a lot of special memories for us. Our first date, sunny days on the beach, where he proposed...and now where we are getting married. Our heart is by the water.
Length of engagement?:
13 months (Oh my, I hope that's not unlucky - quick, knock on wood!)
How long until the wedding?:
Exactly one year from now!
Who did you first tell you were engaged?:
Artie schemed up a surprise engagement party on the day he proposed. He asked me to marry him in Galveston and then we went straight to tell my parents and, SURPRISE, all of our family and friends were there to celebrate with us. So really, almost everyone knew before I did. He gets major brownie points for that day! It was perfect.
If you had to start over in your wedding planning, what one thing would you do differently?:
Not a thing. Thank goodness we found Resha right away - she was an answer to our prayers! We have just adored this process so far.
During the ceremony, who will be the first to cry?:
Artie likes to say that on our wedding day all of the single women in America will be heartbroken and in tears because he will "officially be off the market"...this is usually when I start laughing.
What are your three favorite blogs/websites (besides STC's)?:
I check
compulsively. I am not ashamed to say that I'm a SMP addict.
When selecting someone to entrust with your wedding day, why did you choose STC?:
Oh man, where do I begin? We contacted several event coordinators and it was obvious from the beginning that Resha was head and shoulders above the rest. It only took minutes into our first meeting before we were laughing, joking and just being ourselves. We trust her completely with our big day. She's pretty much the bomb-diggity.
Guys - It is an honor to help you with your big day. I think I'm as excited as you are!
Much love, Resha
