Dave and I dated for five years, I lost my grandfather on Christmas Eve 2011 and Dave stood by my side through it all. Having his support was the most incredible feeling and it just made me realize that much more that I couldn't live without him. On January 27, 2012 Dave proposed, with my mother's diamond and a vintage setting. From there was a very short planning process, as I knew exactly what I wanted for our big day. We had a beautiful romantic wedding, and I felt amazing in the dress of my dreams.
