HOW DID YOU TWO MEET?
We met at Mystical Fitness gym. I was a sales rep and he was a client. He was actually jealous that a friend of his was cordial with me and he wasn't afforded the same pleasantries and insisted that I gave him my number! 😂
TAKE US TO THE MOMENT WHEN YOU FIRST KNEW YOU WANTED TO MARRY YOUR WIFE?
It wasn’t really a moment but more of a sequence of events! The times we spent as friends, hanging out getting to see her interact with friends and family. I knew it was rare I wanted to be apart of it!
WE COULD SEE THAT BOTH OF YOU WERE VERY INTENTIONAL WITH STYLE, INCLUSIVE OF ACCESSORIES, FIT, COLOR SCHEME FOR YOUR BRIDESMAIDS, GROOMSMEN AND INDIVIDUALLY.... WHY IS IT IMPORTANT FOR COUPLES TO TAKE THEIR OVERALL BRIDAL PARTY AND INDIVIDUAL STYLE SERIOUSLY ON WEDDING DAY?
The wedding day is a MOMENT and STYLE you want to relive for a LIFETIME. Both of us, wanted us as well as our bridal party to feel good about how we looked so that the experience would be memorable. Now when anyone looks back on that day they can say that the story is truly TIMELESS!
WHAT’S ONE THING THAT MAKES A WEDDING IN THE BAHAMAS SPECIAL?
Well one would think the climate ( but that day the weather wasn't in our favor) But we would have to say that the culture of our Bahamian people makes the moment special!
WHAT ARE THE TOP 3 WEDDING PLANNING TIPS FROM A BRIDES PERSPECTIVE?
Do Not Stress, have the wedding you want and do not try to please everyone, the day will be as beautiful as you allow it!
Always have a plan B because whatever you think can go wrong will go wrong.
Embrace every moment of the day because through all the beautiful chaos, you will not realize when it's all done!
WHAT ARE THE TOP 3 WEDDING PLANNING TIPS FROM A GROOMS PERSPECTIVE?
Make sure that everything that is planned is mutually agreed upon. Yes most may favor your bride but be sure it’s something you also can be in love with too.
Leave nothing for your bride to think about. Execute your plans with as much perfection leaving her to only thing about walking down the aisle.
Wedding day: be on time, don’t get wrapped up in the excitement of your groomsmen but focus on the moment itself.
WHAT IS THE #1 WEDDING SONG IN YOUR BOOKS?
More than you’ll Ever know- Boyz 2 Men
ANY MARRIAGE ADVICE FOR AN ENGAGED COUPLE TYING THE KNOT SOON ?
There is no rush, continues building a healthy relationship and principles. Enjoy pre-marriage counseling.
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO SINGLES ON THE QUEST TO FIND TRUE LOVE?
There is no quest, what’s for you no one can take away. It just a matter of time, but in looking don’t be so specific, no one is perfect or will have everything you’re looking for. Consider what can you live with for the rest of your life or what you feel you can possibly help change!
