Our surprise wedding wasn't just about keeping a secret—it was about creating a day that felt completely like us. From a rain-soaked proposal and a neon Fourth of July party to barefoot vows, soggy Oreos, and the unexpected joy that can grow alongside grief, this is the story of how we chose intention over tradition and found something even more beautiful than we imagined.

Perfection used to be my lifeline—until I realized that intention holds more power. I’ve spent years organizing spaces, but true transformation happened when I stopped obsessing over the how and started trusting the process. From Feng Shui to life’s unexpected turns, letting go of control led me to more magic than I could have imagined.
