Here to inspire you, it’s Real Weddings Wednesdays! Today, we present Robin and Anthony!

Wedding Date: October 12, 2019

Tell us a little about you and your beloved: Anthony and I actually went to high school together years ago and then lost touch. We reconnected about 25 years later thanks to Facebook! We spent about eight years together, blending our families and homes. We both enjoy riding dirt bikes and on a trip that we took to the Hollister Hills, Anthony stopped at an overlook and pretended that he was having issues with his rear tire, then he asked me to come help him with something. I had said “What can I help you with?” and he responded “THIS” and pointed to his tire.

He had taken Scrabble tiles and a ring and spelled LOVE on his tire with the ring as the “O.”  It was beautiful, private and a HUGE surprise!

What was the most amazing part of your day? That we were surrounded by all the most important people in our lives.

What else would you like to share about your big day? All of the preparations was worth it! Our evening was magical and we never stressed on anything as the evening went on.
