Introducing… my first 2019 couple, Shannon & Todd! YAY!! :) This week the blog has been filled with so many of my lovely 2018 couples, but Shannon and Todd are the first to have a post for a 2019 couple!! :) Where do I even begin with how wonderful these two are!! They are two of the most bubbly people I’ve ever met. Their energy is simply contagious- it’s hard to not constantly smile when you’re around them! Their joy for being engaged and getting getting is overflowing!!

These two both went to Otterbein, but didn’t meet there because they attended at different times. However, they were connected through a mutual friend’s barbecue and the rest is history! :) I love how they have that similarity, because Michael and I’s whole love story and all our early memories took place in Westerville, so it’s definitely a special part of town to me! What a sweet connection! :) When I first met these two, it was absolutely the best hearing all about how Todd proposed to Shannon. He managed to make it a complete and total surprise, and got down on one knee at the Carillon Historical Park in Dayton, Ohio. He even had her whole family there to celebrate with them right after she said yes to the love of her life! How perfect is that!! :)

Shannon and Todd, I seriously had a BLAST hanging out with you two!! Pistacia Vera was the perfect coffee shop to incorporate one of the things you both love, and getting to know you two better was so fun! I cannot wait for your wedding and to be a part of it. Seriously, it is such an honor and a privilege to serve you both! You two are filled with so much JOY, I mean it when I say it’s contagious!! I LOVE IT! :) Cannot wait for what’s to come!!
