How did you two meet?
The first time I saw Andy was at my championship PSL Kickball game in November 2014. He came with Jon (a groomsmen) to cheer us on. He was dressed nicely as he had just come from work. He was wearing his glasses too. I thought he was really cute! I asked Jon who his friend was and Jon said “that’s my friend Slobo, he is a doctor”. He is not a doctor. I am not sure why Jon said that LOL. I thought Andy was a doctor until January 2015 when his name came up again when I was hanging out with Mandy (bridesmaid), Ashley, Emily and Abbey. His name was mentioned and I said “oh isn’t that your friend who is a doctor?” and they were all like “LOLOLOL no???”
Tell me about the proposal!
Andy and I planned a trip to Chicago in May 2019. We travel a lot but that was the first time we ever went on a trip by ourselves; we are usually traveling with friends. Andy had it all planned out. I had no idea. We arrived Friday morning and decided to walk around the city. We walked out to an atrium that provided a great view of the entire city. Once we were out there, he said “I brought you out here for a reason” and proposed!!
What was your favorite part of wedding planning?
Talking to nice, kind, sweet vendors who I knew cared and would make the day special for us.
What is some advice you’d give to a newly engaged couple about the whole wedding planning process?
Do it early and be flexible to changes!
