Felicia, the bride

 I used to be a very shy and reserved person. When I met Zach, I was at a point in my life where I had a hard time letting myself open up and trust people. However, Zach was so accepting, friendly, and considerate that I quickly learned I could be myself with him. We become good friends and somewhere along the way we fell in love. Zach has taught me that it is okay to be myself and that I will always have someone to support me in life. He encourages me to try new things and go outside of my comfort zone. He is the most encouraging, caring, and patient person I have ever met. Without him, I’m not sure I would be able to handle life as well as I do. When he proposed, even though I was shocked, I never doubted saying yes.

Zachary, the groom

I have known Fee for at least seven years now.  I don't know when I fell in love with her.  I just know that I did.  She is the most wonderful girl I have ever known.  She is constantly surprising me with her kindness, intelligence, and sass.  She is very hardworking and diligent in everything she does, whether it is art, writing, or schoolwork.  I proposed to her back in October of 2016.  Her response?  "But I have a chemistry quiz tomorrow!"  After everyone laughed at that, however, she did say yes.
