"She's so young, and he's so perfect. They waited for love and it was worth it. She want's to feel like this for a hundred years.."Francesca Battistelli.
"Once upon a time there was a little girl who saw this boy, and the boy saw her. They fell madly in love"...next thing you know he is on his knee proposing to the girl of his dreams and she replies with "Yess!!!".
That's basically how it happened! Well I guess I didn't mention all the yummy details like how they've been together since she was 15, and the fact that they are each other's best friend. Oh, and the cool little part about how he proposed at Myrtle Beach at sunset, that was kinda a BIG deal too(I love talking about myself in the 3rd person). There's so many details exploding in my mind, but I'll just keep it simple and tell you all the BIG details about "US" and the engagement.
Fun facts about Reed & Lydia:
We love laughing together.
We play thumb war...all the time.
He's beats me at checkers.
He calls me beautiful, I call him handsome. Insert "Awwwww".
We box with each other, he loses though. ;)
He buys me sour patch candy and I'm bad at sharing it. I share with him, just because I love him ALOOOTTTT.
We wink at each other.
We text each other even though we are sitting together.
I got engaged to the man I've always wanted.
This was litterally seconds after he proposed. I wanted everyone to see the joy on my face.
After he proposed we walked down to the pier where fireworks were about to go off. It was soooo magically. I know that sounds cheesy, but it was "FOR REAL" so magical.
Our walk back to the hotel, Ahhh it was the BEST night of my life.
The next morning we got up at sunset and walked on the beach. We were/are sooooo happy!
The bling bling he bought her, oh I mean me.
Then, ya know, once you change your relationship status on facebook to "Engaged" you get all the "Congrats!" "Omgsh!" "No way?" "FOR REAL?"..you get the jift. People were very excited for us. People love us! We love them back. People are awesome. Especially my people!
The wedding planning began. We did the most important thing first. We booked out photographer. You thought I was going to say "we picked a date", didn't you? Nope, we consulted out photographer first then we picked a date. Photography REALLLYYY is the most important part of the wedding, aside from the actually "getting married" part, of course. Melissa Esterline, a good friend/fellow photog did our engagement pictures. We love her! She did 3 seperate sessions just for us. We went with "The Notebook" theme so we had to meet up a few times to fit everything in. She's a darling! Here's some of our pictures from the sessions.
Get ready for some "Awwww"ing.
You ready?!
Ok. Ready set go!
This is one of mt personal favorites! He makes me fly in the sky...SEEE! SEE!
He makes me laugh...SO...hard!
We are silly when we are together. Well its more like "I'm silly and he's mature", but sometimes I get him to be silly with me.
That's us!
:) We are too cool!
Hahahahaha. Makes me laugh EVERYtime. I love his laugh, especially when he's laughing so hard he can't control it.
Awww! (I bet you "Aw"ed?)
This reminds me of "Ann of Green Gables"..where Ann talks to Gilbert over the fence. So sweet!
..and, of course, we had to fit some camera stuff in. I like taking pretty pictures.
He makes me feel soo protected. He my as I call him.
He's pretty much the most handsome thing on planet earth. Yep, thats offical!
He loves me!
I love him!
We really are best friends. We make quite the couple.
Hey Reed, maybe we should be face models. Nah, I think YOU should just be the face model.
His eyes are blue--her favorite color is blue. Her eyes are green--his favorite color is green. :)
The bling bling again.
The wedding is 24 days away!!!!!!!!! Ahhhh. SO. MUCH. EXCITEMENT. stored in my body.
