A Romantic Purple Spring Wedding

Ryan and Raegan

Raegan and Ryan, a kind, genuine and grateful couple. The journey to their wedding was longer than most, but this love story began with a heartfelt and thoughtful proposal.

Now, if you look closely at Raegan’s florals you will see hints of orange represented in the flowers. When these two began dating, Ryan would always give her orange roses. Reagan recalls, “He liked to buy me orange because they are a mix between yellow roses which represent friendship and red roses which represent love”.

One very late evening, after Raegan got home from work, she entered through the garage where a trail of red tea lights led her to the kitchen table. The Gin Blossoms "Follow You Down" was playing in the background. The Gin Blossoms are one of the couples favorite bands and Ryan actually flew Raegan to New York to see them play once.

From the kitchen, Raegan was able to see a slideshow of photos of them playing on their tv. On the kitchen table were candles, a dozen orange roses and a card. The card described their past and how they met. The trail of candles continued to the counter and a dozen red roses and another card. That card was about their present and how far they've come. Then Raegan walked into the living room and Ryan was standing with their pup Myla and more roses. There was a stool set up in front of him with more candles and a third card. That card was about their future and ended with “will u be my future forever?”

Raegan looked up and Ryan was down on his knee to ask the most important question. She squealed so loud that he had to start over. Being the romantic he is, Ryan even had her favorite scent, apple cinnamon tea lights diffusing in the background with champagne chilling. Tell me that was not one amazing proposal?

Special thank you to this vendor team who made this day possible!
