Meagan and Josh were introduced through a mutual friend. “We had talked for a few weeks and then decided to meet each other in person. We were both pretty nervous for the first date but everything was so natural. Our conversations flowed so smoothly and we made plans to meet again before the first date was over.”
Three years into their relationship, Meagan had set up a photo shoot for the two of them and their dogs. “I knew this would be the perfect time to propose. I called the photographer and told her that I was planning to propose. At the end of the photoshoot, I told her that I had one last picture that I wanted, then pulled out the ring and got down on one knee. Meagan started to cry and could barely say yes. Having professional pictures of that moment is really special to both of us.”
115 guests, including six bridesmaids, a junior bridesmaid, and 6 groomsmen attended the couple’s June wedding. “Two of our nephews both did a reading and we mixed a red and white wine together during a wine ceremony while our friend sang. It was such a beautiful moment when we finished the wine ceremony and our friend was still singing. We were able to just take in the moment.”
“One thing that we still laugh about on our wedding day is Meagan losing her wedding vows just 10 minutes before the ceremony. I was super impressed that she wrote all new ones.”
The couple chose a color palette of lilac, navy blue, and silver for their decor. “We were trying to go for an elegant but laid back feel. Something that was not only going to be remembered by us but our guests as well.”
Meagan is a trauma orthopedic registered nurse and Josh is a quality assurance manager. They currently reside in Abbottstown, Pennsylvania.
