Jessica & Chris’ LOVE story… told by couple:
Where It Started
11 / 17 / 2018
Our first date was at the Saturday Morning Market in St. Pete, strolling booths by local artists. We initially bonded over our love of the Tampa Bay Lightning (Go Bolts!) but quickly realized we shared the same values, goals, and spirit. We were enjoying each other's company so much, the date was extended several hours as we continued to walk through downtown St. Pete.
The Proposal
10 / 27 / 2021
Chris knew he wanted to ask on their new boat on a night with a perfect sunset. His plans were delayed over a month waiting on the weather to cooperate, but it was worth the wait! He distracted Jess by telling her to look for a dolphin (she can't resist them), and when she finally turned back around, he was on one knee just before the sunset.
And YES! We ALL saw dolphins on their wedding day at Tampa Bay Watch during their sunset session… it was magical 🐬
We absolutely LOVED spending Earth Day with Jessica & Chris and just loved how they incorporated their love for nature and nature preservation on their wedding day, starting with the actual Venue, Tampa Bay Watch which inspires our youth to take care of nature and gives us all more knowledge about our planet to their party favors… which were customized-engraved glasses that their guests can keep forever! So clever!
These two make our hearts so happy just by being them… sweet in every way.
We wish Jessica & Chris many many more magical moments together and whenever I see a 🐬 I’ll think of Jessica 💛 Cheers to a beautiful couple.
