Caitlin and David, you two are so much
fun! As Caitlin and David live in
Chicago, I do have to say that it was such fun finally getting to meet them in
person! Caitlin, your mom is so amazing and I knew from our first talks and meeting with her that I would love you guys so much too! I was looking forward to meeting you guys in person and you definitely didn't disappointment me!! They couldn't be sweeter and have so much fun
together. I love Caitlin's super bright
colored shoes. What a gorgeous and super
fun couple. I had a blast taking your
engagement photos and loved getting to learn more about you and your big
day. I just love you two!!! It is an absolute honor getting to photograph
your engagement photos and wedding day.
It has been fun getting to know you both and more about your wedding
day. You are an amazing couple, Caitlin
and David, and I can't wait for your gorgeous and super fun wedding day! Here are a few of my favorites from our photo
shoot and a little more about your love story . . .
Caitlin
and David joke about their knowing each other for so long. Caitlin shared, “Well, it is hard to say when
we first ‘met.’ Ha! David and I have known each other as long as
I can remember! We grew up going to the same school, had the same 4th grade
teacher and actually ‘dated,’ ‘went out’ whatever you would like to call it for
a short stint in 8th grade ha, ha. We started officially dating just after I got
my license (Feb of our sophomore year in High School) and have basically been
together most of the time since. We dated long distance in college (he was at
Purdue and I was at Miami of Ohio) and now both live and work in Chicago.” When
it came to knowing and realizing that they had found “the one,” Caitlin and
David have both known for a long time. “Clearly. Ha, ha,” Caitlin giggled. “You know those people that date in High
School and somehow "just know," yeah that is us.” :)
For
some of their favorite “date nights,” David and Caitlin are both really active
and she added, “Oddly enough enjoy working out together. Guess you could say
both of us have always been fitness junkies. For a while I was even into
training for marathons and conned David into running two with me. We also like going out to eat together. David
is definitely a man-of-habit though and wants to go to the same three
restaurants every single time. I, of course, always want to try something
new. Deciding where to go is always the
tough part because Chicago has SO many good places to eat.
David
proposed at the top of the mountain when they were out skiing in Park City for
a long weekend this February. Caitlin
described, “He was good enough to take the advice of my girlfriends and had a
resort photographer hiding, snapping pictures in the background. I have some
great pictures with a beautiful view! I was however wearing ski pants, goggles,
the whole ensemble and he proposed with a ‘fake’ ring. The real ring was not
done in time...for everyone that knows me, no one should be shocked. My life
typically does not go as planned, and I would be the one to get engaged in the
worst outfit ever, with a fake ring :) I
did, however, love every last minute of the whole experience and would not change a thing!
Shortly
after, they started planning their wedding day.
They both currently live in Chicago, but both grew up just outside
Indianapolis. For this reason, Indy definitely is "home" to both of them
and is where their parents still live. “While David would prefer to be
married barefoot on a beach, Indy is definitely the next best thing,” Caitlin
shared. “It will ALWAYS be home to us no
matter where we live!” When I asked, “What
has been your favorite part of the wedding planning process so far?” I had to
laugh at Caitlin’s cute and super honest response, “Hmmm…not too much of it!
Good thing my mom is fabulous at it :) Too many details for my scatter brain to
handle...”
When
it comes to their wedding day and what they were most looking forward to, “Well,
I obviously can't wait to marry David first and foremost! But if we are being honest, I really can't
wait to wear my wedding dress. Not sure what David would say here . . . probably
something about the party afterwards!”
