That’s Amore!

What a Perfect Day! This day had everything going for it, and like most Florida weddings, we were terrified for a week that it was going to rain. I asked our couple to well us a little bit about their big day! It was the best day. The weather was perfect, our friends and family were there, we couldn't ask for more.

Jenna's bridesmaids were: Sister-in-Law, Aleia Noland; Sister-in-Law, Katie Hannon; Lifelong best friends Brittany Lou and Rosa Schwartz; and Rebecca Mann- who introduced the bride and groom!

Brians's groomsmen were: Brother, Kevin Day; Brother-in-Law, Bryce Hannon; Brother-in-Law, Bret Noland; and closest friends Ryan Ripko and Jeff Willoughby

We were incredibly grateful to have so many friends and family celebrate with us. We know that so many couples missed out on that because of the pandemic and we felt so blessed to be able to share our big day- we hope it provided a fun glimpse of "normalcy" that we have all been craving.

We felt so much love! From the "first look", to the ceremony performed by Jenna's dad, to the amazing Maid of Honor/ Best Man speeches... it was truly a day we will never forget.

Thanks for looking through Jenna and Brian’s Perfect Day! He’s a little bit of their love story for those that don’t know them. Brian and Jenna met at Zaharia's restaurant in September 2017. They had an instant connection and their mutual friends, Rebecca and Angelica arranged for them to have their first official date at Zaharia's the following evening. Jenna's family was hosting a Labor Day party that coming weekend and she invited him to attend. He showed up wearing his best golf shirt and hit it off with her whole family! Jenna was supposed to attend Surf Expo in Orlando for work the following week but due to Hurricane Irma- the slowest moving hurricane in history, Surf Expo was cancelled and the entire state of Florida was playing a waiting game. Brian asked Jenna if she would be evacuating since they both lived on the island. She told him she wasn't evacuating and would just ride out the storm at her parent's house. He said he wasn't evacuating either and asked her to "hunker down" with his brother and him at their home. She did. They spent 4 days with no power, no water (the fun of a septic system!) and no blowdryers! Jenna joked that if Brian could see her like this at the beginning, it wouldn't get any worse! Jenna never left, and ended up moving in officially a few months later. Hurricanes have become their "thing" and they remind each other often that they can get through "any storm".
Brian proposed at Zaharia's restaurant where they met in 2020... and the rest is history!
