Jamion and Allison both graduated from Mount St. Mary’s University and had mutual friends from school. When Jamion got the Mount St Mary’s Basketball coaching job, Allie came back for Homecoming Weekend with her friends and they were introduced. “From there, we casually talked, but nothing serious. When I moved from Atlanta to Baltimore, a friend suggested we go on a date. So we did and we have been together ever since.”
Jamion asked Allie to marry him in their kitchen before going to dinner. “We celebrated, just us, with champagne and an amazing meal at our favorite spot, Hooch and Banter. We laughed, cried and FaceTimed with all of our loved ones to share the news.”
225 guests were in attendance for their outdoor May nuptials, including a five-member bridal party. Jacoy, Jamion’s Son, was the ring bearer. “It was very personal. Our officiant was a close family friend. We wrote our own vows and I said special vows to Jamion’s son. It was lightly raining, but the tree at Walker’s Overlook was decorated so beautifully with florals, that I was determined to get married in front of that tree.”
The couple opted for a “neutral garden party” theme for their wedding decor at Walker’s Overlook.
“Given our wedding was on Cinco de Mayo, it wasn’t too surprising, but we weren’t even halfway through cocktail hour when we started to run out of Margarita Mix! We did an inventory of the bar and Lakefront Liquor Store came through with a delivery. Needless to say, everyone had a great time.”
Jamion is a college basketball coach and Allie is a digital marketer. They recently moved from Frederick to Loudonville, New York.
