Tim &
Sara
Describe Your Engagement
Tim proposed days after we came
home from our Gatlinburg, TN
vacation. During our time there we
had to escape the wildfires that
ultimately burned down the cabin
we were staying in. After a pretty
traumatic experience, I was hesitant
to head to Chicago a few days later
to see my favorite Moon Child,
Stevie Nicks, but knew I couldn't
miss this show! At the end of her
performance, she started talking
about love and that life is good,
people are good, and everything
is going to be okay! During this,
I turned to see Tim down on one
knee proposing. I knew from the
moment I met him that he was the one, and I didn't hesitate to say YES!
Describe Your Wedding Vision
Our wedding was nothing short of a whimsical, vintage fairytale. We focused
the wedding on our first dance song, "Leather & Lace" and our vision fell into
place without hesitation. Sundance Studio is an old blacksmith shop and the
only venue we looked at. As we toured the venue, Frank Sinatra played through
an old record player and we booked it on site. After that everything fell into place.
We envisioned eucalyptus everywhere and violins playing in the background. We
borrowed all of my grandma's lace doilies, used blush with pops of burgundy
and burnt orange as a color scheme and I started searching for my perfect
boho wedding dress. Before we knew it our big day was here and with the help
of all our talented and hard-working vendors our fairy-tale transformed into our
real life happily-ever-after.

Describe Your Wedding Day
Our wedding day started with rain but that didn't
stop the boys from golfing in the morning while the
girls practiced yoga and got ready. As we arrived at
the venue I could feel the excitement as vendors set
up floral arrangements and the cake was delivered.
We went to the gorgeous bridal suite while we took
photos with my favorite ladies and I nervously
waited for our first look. Seeing Tim for the first
time that day put my nerves at ease and he smiled
like it was the first time he saw me. Guests started
arriving and my dad gave me away to my happily-
ever-after. Our short but sweet ceremony told of our
crazy adventure and how we met and ended with
our first kiss as husband and wife. After our vows,
we celebrated with our closests family and friends,
heartfelt speeches, delicious food, bad dancing, and
so much love!
