Welcome to the first installment of Wedding Wednesday!!!
Although my wedding has past (May 30th, 2015) I
thought it would be fun to do a series of Wedding Wednesdays so that I can reminisce
in all things wedding!
Here is what
Wednesdays will consist of for the next couple of weeks..
My
Bachlorette
Days
Leading Up to the Wedding/ Rehersal Dinner
Our
Wedding Day!
What I
Learned/ Tips for Planning a Wedding
So.. lets jump right into the first topic.. Our Love Story..
My undergrad degree is in el ed and at my school – men in
education classes are few and far between. So on the first day of class when a
male enters the room, he is noticed! And boy did I notice Tommy! He looked like
the definition of a ‘surfer dude’. Long blonde hair, tan skin, blue eyes. I
used to skootch my chair so I could get a better look at him in class ;)
I
could never get up the courage to talk to him in class. The semester ended with
zero words being exchanged.
While we were out being typical 22 year old college
students on Saint Patrick’s Day, my roomie called to inform me that Tommy was
at the bar (she was also in our class the previous semester). So what is a girl
to do besides book it to the bar!
Once I got there she encouraged me to go and
talk to him, I had liquid courage on my side so I decided to go for it, what
did I have to lose?!
I walked right up to him and asked him to dance. He agreed
and we danced the rest of the night! He got my number and called the next day –
the rest as they say – is history!!
Want to know what the kicker is? He doesn’t even remember me
from class!!
Making the first move ended up changing my life!
We've been together for 4 years - and married for a little over 1 month. Here are a few pictures of us over the years..

My roomie was one of the bridesmaids at our wedding and
since I give her all the credit for encouraging me to talk to Tommy – I asked
her to tell the story of the night we met at our wedding, so you will get to
hear her side once I post our wedding video!
That’s all for now! Thank you for reading and if there is something
you’ve been wanting to do but have been too afraid to just “go for it” I highly
suggest your try – what do you have to lose!?
Love Always,
Lis
