Hastings lake garden wedding

Not of the romantic variety and because of the logistics of him working out of town, Nathan shopped for Rachel’s ring when they were in the mall together. After he told her to ‘keep her self occupied for a bit’ he returned back to her with a jewelry store bag. Being that it was November and he wouldn’t have another opportunity to shop before Christmas, this could have been any kind of present, really. Upon returning home Rachel noticed the bag in the closet, up on a shelf and reminded him that she couldn’t be held responsible for curiosity taking over if he trusted her with it there. Operation hide under the bed was a success and Rachel didn’t see the contents of that bag until Nathan proposed. These two are just the cutest, silliest, sweetest and down-to-earth pair around. I’ve been so blessed getting to know them this past year. Thank you guys for your trust and friendship. Thank you also to Christa & Dawn at Sapphire Events and Weddings for bringing us together.
