The Story of Us

I officially met Sean in November of 2005 at work. While we worked in different departments, we sat near each other for a few months before ever speaking to one another. Finally, we said hello while I was frantically running back and forth to the copier near his desk.

Soon after, he added me to his inter-office IM and we began chatting on a daily basis. One thing lead to another, and we began dating in January 2006. Since I had just gotten out of a long relationship, I was totally not looking for something serious. Of course, you know what that means. Yup, I feel in love in a matter of months.

Sean proposed on Saturday, November 25, 2006 while we were having dinner at Opryland Hotel here in Nashville. I was completely shocked since we had been talking about a possible spring 2007 engagement. After I gained my compsure (tears stopped briefly), I said yes!

Fall has always been my favorite time of year, so I had dreamed about having a fall wedding for a long time. Once we looked over the football schedules for our alma maters (Auburn and University of TN), we set the date as November 17, 2007. Yes, you read that correctly. We had to plan our fall wedding around college football. If we had scheduled the wedding on a big game day, our guests (and the groom) would have been preoccupied. Crazy SEC fans!!!

Having a date set, the next step was to choose where we would be married. More details in the next post....
