Tell us a little about you and your beloved: Steve and I met on a family camping trip on the Oregon coast five years ago. It just so happened that I used my only 2 week vacation on this trip not knowing that I would meet my soul mate. I was in college for my bachelors degree in Interior Architecture and Design and he just signed into the Air Force.
If it is true that opposites do attract then Steve and I are proof of this theory! Steve had been telling himself for over a year and a half that the day he found out he was hired for the job he had dreamt about that he would ask me to marry him. They day he received the phone call that he got the job, he went out and picked the ring and proposed that night.
What was the most amazing part of your day? Looking up at my soon to be husband waiting for me at the alter. He was watching me round the corner up the aisle in my dress.
What else would you like to share about your big day? Everything turned out better than we had hoped it would be. Time flies when you are having fun and our wedding was a blur.

Anything that you would have done differently if you were given the chance? I would have eaten breakfast that morning! I was so caught up in the excitement and keeping to the schedule that I forgot to eat!
