Tell us a little about you and your beloved: We met through a mutual friend at a party. Zack borrowed his Dad’s boat and proposed on Folsom Lake.
Planning the wedding was challenging in the beginning, but then we went to a showcase at The Firehouse, and was all good from there.
What was the most amazing part of your day? Getting married! Seeing all your hardwork pay off with planning.
