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!)

Good morning! I hope you are enjoying the week so far? It’s all busy here with gorgeous things coming in and new exciting weekly features happening! (To be announced next week!)
Today, I bring you Phil & Kim, photographed by the wonderful Craig Dearsley. (Who is married to the lovely Veronica Dearly who I’ve previously featured here)
“We met doing something we both love, festivals! After attending years of the same festivals we found were both avid regulars on the Reading Festival forum and got involved in working the festival. We first met at a Halloween party hosted by one of the organisers. That’s where it all started, following that we had the difficult task of a long distance relationship, with him being from Kent and me from Reading.
” We spent every weekend together and all week on the phone, eventually he got a job in Reading and we haven’t looked back since! We decided to have a mega trip in America a couple of years ago, we spent nearly 4 weeks driving around Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Yosemite National Park, San Francisco and all the way down the coast to Los Angeles and San Diego. That trip really influenced our falling in love with Las Vegas, once Phil proposed we knew that Vegas was the place for us to exchange our vows, It completely suits our personalities and requirements for a wedding!
“We regularly have ‘date nights’ and depending on pennies it can just be a cosy night in. Phil took this opportunity to cook for me (something he never does!) and we sat and watched a movie – Life As We Know It. Afterwards I suggested we go upstairs for some loving but he suggested we tidied up first (what has got into this guy?!)
He gave me the DVD box and as I pressed eject the disk came out with the words “Will you marry me?” written on the disk. I froze on the spot as our date night had fallen on April Fools Day, I was in shock and confusion on whether it was a prank, but when I finally turned to look at him he was sat there grinning holding out a ring.
“I only have three tattoos and to be honest they are pretty well covered. My main being on my lower back so would be covered up by my dress. The other two are on my feet/ankle, and I would happily show them off. I have been contemplating getting a shoulder piece before the wedding next year but it will depend on our savings!
“We don’t have any wedding/couples tattoos however we are planning on getting inked when we are in Vegas. It’s less about each others names or the date of the wedding but more about our experience of getting married and Vegas as a destination.”
How amazing is Phil and Kim’s story! So amazing and such an awesome engagement shoot! Don’t forget to leave them some love and a huge thanks to Craig Dearsley and Phil and Kim for sharing their photos and stories with us!
