A Nashville Engagement: Matt and Dana [Tattooed Bride Blog]

Good morning! I hope you enjoyed your weekends?! I for one purchased the most cutest shorts for our holiday to Spain later this year whilst we were shopping for Rob’s suit for a wedding we’re attending next week. Oh, and we ate too much YO! Sushi on their “Super! Sumo! Sundays!” (It was Rob’s first time!)

Anyway.. This week, I bring you the most gorgeous Dana and Matt – photographed by the equally as beautiful Stephanie of La Photographie Nashville.

Aren’t they beautiful together?!! Here’s Dana’s story of how they met and how Matt proposed..

I moved to Nashville not knowing a soul. I randomly met a girl at a bar and she took me to a house party. Matt was at the party and he slyly gave me his phone number. The next day I texted him and he took me salsa dancing. Going to bars by myself and going to house parties with strangers are typically things I would never do, but the one time I did, I met my husband and it changed my life in the most amazing way.

Matt came home from work one evening and asked me if I wanted to go for a walk through the neighborhood. I should have immediately realized at that moment something was up, because voluntary exercise is unusual for him. We walked to a nearby pond where we sat and talked for a moment. I unfortunately ruined the moment unknowingly because a bat began circling overhead. I begged Matt to leave and he obliged.

We continued to walk around the neighborhood and he asked to sit down again. As we sat on a boulder Matt popped the question. It took me completely by surprise!

I love the spot where he proposed because I drive by the area everyday

Aren’t they the cutest?! Leave them some love and be sure to head back next Monday for their beautiful wedding. (It truly is beautiful – you won’t want to miss it!)
