The foundation of Brian and Rachel’s love story began when they both grew up side by side in the same town. To Rachel, Brian was always a school girl crush being “the cute older brother” of her dear friend. As time marched on, both grew older and headed down separate paths to college and adulthood.
Years later, something “clicked” when they were paired to walk down the aisle together at the wedding of Brian’s sister. A spark was ignited that couldn’t be put out, and after dating long distance for over a year, Rachel moved back to Washington State to be with her love.
Brian planned a romantic proposal over a fireworks show at the local Yacht club, but panic quickly followed when he realized the ring had fallen out of his coat pocket! Luckily, the ring was soon recovered, and Rachel said…. “yes”!
Rachel explains, “When I spoke to Lori on the phone I felt like she was going to be a shepherd for all of my thoughts and visions. She immediately (14 months before my wedding) got me a bunch of material to help me pick all my vendors. She was very thoughtful in supporting my budget, while helping me still feel like I was getting the best support from TMW and all the other vendors. I was convinced right away that I would move forward with TMW.”
