The Story (as told by Megan, the Bride):
Mike and I met when we were young, I am friends with his sister. Throughout the years we have been at parties together: church, family picnics, and other get-togethers. We have always been friends. When we both coincidentally ended long term relationships simultaneously, we were hanging out and made plans to go to six flags. We ended up getting a group to go. It was a blast! While we were at six flags we made plans for our first date. I honestly was not sure if Mike was really going to go through with it. But he would text me every day to remind me about our date. At that point I knew he really wanted to hang out with me.



Mike took me to the Mystic Aquarium for the afternoon and for dinner we went to S&P Oyster Company. When I was a little girl I always wanted a man to take me to dinner on the water; I thought that would be so romantic! (The funny thing is, Mike never knew this!) S&P Oyster is right on the river, it is so pretty with all the small boats going by! It was perfect. That day I knew I was going to marry him no matter what!



3 years later, on January 15th, Mike took me back to S&P Oysters. We walked around town and down to the boardwalk. When we got to the end…he was sweating. I knew something was up. He asked me to take a picture of the town with the pretty Christmas lights (I thought this was odd but did it anyway!). When I went to give him the camera back he was down on one knee with my ring! I was shaking I could not believe this was happening. Of course I said YES!!!









Our wedding was everything I had dreamed it would be – we chose our vendors based on recommendations of other couples and our first instincts upon meeting them. I had always wanted to be a princess meeting my prince on the day of my wedding! Everything that day was my fairy tale dream come true!
