First, we'd just like to thank you for joining us to celebrate this milestone and such an important day in our lives. As we write this, a lot is going on - coronavirus, school closings, racial injustices, and even Justin's graduation has been postponed. Throughout all of the chaos, we are thankful to God for always making a way and for being the head of our union. We appreciate everyone's support and love as we become one. All the best, The Bells.
We actually met for the first time in August 2017, however it was that December when the love story started. Justin had been reaching out to Brielle regarding law school, and wanted to chat with her on the last day of finals before he went back to Mississippi for the holiday break. He knew she would be staying in Tampa for the holidays working on school stuff. So, he decided to Facetime her. Long story short, they have spoken every day since. . .
Justin's proposal was absolutely perfect. No one could not have planned a better surprise and it was definitely a SURPRISE. He proposed on his birthday while we were out celebrating him and Justina (my college bestie and partner in crime, who coincidently also shares a September 13th birthday!) After dinner we went to the Canopy in Downtown St Pete but it was too crowded for him to pop the question there. So, the group decided to walk to some other place (they made up a name) and while I was busy convincing them that this made up place did not exist someone said, "Wait Bree...they stopped." So, I turn around and with a confused look stared at Justin who is about 20 feet away kneeling. Then in dawns on me...... this is it, and I say "wait, are you proposing to me.... yes yes yes yes YES." LOL. best. birthday. ever.
On Wednesday, November 18, 2020 we made the difficult decision to cancel the wedding plan for the health and safety of our loved ones. We appreciate your love, understanding, and support of our union. We will stream our union for everyone to view comfortably from their home. 💜
