"We met on New Years Eve 2008. He was live performance painting and I was going out with my girlfriends. I bought the painting..." - Sarah

...And the love story of Sarah and Carlos began... 

"The Mast Farm Inn was the perfect choice for our elopement, we wanted something intimate, romantic, all inclusive (from a wedding planning standpoint) and a relaxing getaway....and we got all of that! We especially loved the animals in the pastor behind our cabin, we are HUGE animal lovers! We enjoyed the Granary cabin to the fullest for 5 days, we were married behind the cabin and enjoyed the view of the beautiful arbor and flowers all week and our wedding meal was catered in the cabin!" - Sarah

"Although our wedding was just the two of us, we didn't spare any detail to make it uniquely us...I walked down the isle to Van Morrison, "Into The Mystic"...I wanted the traditional...something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue...Carlos's mom loaned me a beautiful pearl necklace that I wrapped around my wrist as a bracelet, my earrings were my grandmothers, and my dress was new...the blue was on my unmentionables!" - Sarah

"We had a hand fasting ceremony and instead of generic ribbon to fast our hands together we used the bottom inch of my dress (where it was shortened), you can see it in his suit pocket. Carlos found some amazing green koi socks to make sure his fun personality was exhibited in his outfit! At the last minute he decided to wear his hat." - Sarah

"My ring is a Morganite and Morganites are meant to bring divine love, it is meant to attract love and maintain it. It helps to release unhealthy emotional patter, aids in developing trust and brings a sense of joy and inner strength. Also the diamonds come from a conflict free zone, so no blood diamonds here!" - Sarah

"Flowers are an important part of my life, I grew up spending lots of time in my grandfathers flower shop, and I've always felt flowers bring joy to peoples lives." - Sarah
