As many of you have probably heard, Charles Patrick Coggins proposed to me over Easter Weekend and we're getting married at the end of June 2013! The huge outpouring of love and support has been tremendous and I'm thankful for everyone in our lives! I'm in the process of asking my Bridesmaids, so stay tuned for that information and plenty of silly pictures.

""HOLY SHIT THAT'S HUGE!!!! :D"
"WOW! Congrats!"
"She will need a shoulder harness to position her hand. Mazel Tov!"
"Holy shit woman!!! :)"
"I just yelled HOLY CRAP!! Haha wow it is beautiful"
"Holy beautiful! Can you still lift your hand?!"
"Holy beautiful! Can you still lift your hand?!"
I know, it's ridiculous. I'm honored to wear it for the rest of my life!
At this point, we plan to get married on June 29th 2013 at Church of the Saviour United Methodist in Montgomery and will have our reception at the Bell Event Centre where Patrick proposed!
We plan to have an Open House Engagement Party on Saturday June 23rd 2012 in the evening on UC's campus so we can celebrate with more of our friends, since the wedding will consist of family and close friends. Save the Date and stay tuned for more details!
In the past two weeks, I have learned how important it is to have your significant other as a dedicated teammate, committed to supporting you unconditionally - before engagement, during engagement, and certainly during a marriage. In the plethora of wonderful excitement and questions from loved ones, ALWAYS being on the same page with your fiance(e) is a key to success and navigating through the details and responsibilities that come with a wedding and a marriage.
I'll keep posting updates as we figure them out, and what we discover during our time as an engaged couple! Thanks again for the love and support!
