Jason &
Gabriela
Describe Your Engagement
On the weekend of November 14,
2015, Jason and I headed out on
a weekend getaway to Saugatuck,
Michigan, the same location where
we had taken our first vacation
together. Jason had taken the lead
on planning most of the weekend,
and he made it a point to want to
stop at a quaint little beach we had
visited two years earlier. Once we
made it to the beach, Jason told
me he had something special he
wanted to share with me; for the
past two and a half years, Jason
had written down the special
memories that he and I had made
and shared, all of which were
beautifully told in a journal he handed me. I read through all of these beautiful
and loving memories until I reached what I thought was the last page, at which
point Jason pointed out to me that it looked like there was still one page
missing. At that moment, Jason asked me to stand up, took out the last page of
his handwritten memories, and asked me to marry him.
Describe Your Wedding Vision
Romantic. From the start of the planning process, I knew I wanted every color,
detail, and touch to just portray a romantic and beautiful feel. After choosing to
get married in the spring, we really wanted to focus on making our wedding light,
fun, and charming. We used a soft and light color palette of blush, champagne,
cream, white and touches of gold to make each detail pop, and really focused
on using every little detail, from the beautiful pops of color in the beading of the
bridesmaid dresses, to the sweet blush macaroons at each place setting, to the
beautiful fresh floral arrangements filling the venue to create an overall sense
of simple romance.

Describe Your Wedding Day
The only word I can use to describe our wedding
day is unforgettable. Not only did I get to marry
the love of my life, but we were honored enough
to be surrounded by the ones we love and cherish
the most as well. From our traditional Orthodox
ceremony, to our first kiss as husband and wife,
to dancing the night away, the entire day was filled
with an overwhelming sense of love and happiness.
We were so blessed to have shared the start of our
amazing journey with our friends and family and
only wish we could do it all again.
