New Date, Same wedding

It all started on January 28, 2017 at Gasparilla. Carlin was living in South Florida at the time, but visiting home for the festivities and met up with some friends at Fruitwood (shoutout to Alex, Chad and Jon). Little did she know that Brett was also meeting up with the same friends. They ended up meeting officially later that evening at a local Tampa bar, The Patio. They hit it off and had a blast together! The following week they went on their first official date at On Swann and realized they had more in common than they thought. So naturally shortly after that, Carlin moved back home to Tampa and the rest is history!!!

Brett and Carlin both landed new jobs at the same time (score!) and took a week long vacation in Costa Rica to reset before starting their jobs. The very last day as they were getting ready to leave, Brett took Carlin to watch the sunrise over Mount Arenal one last time. As the sun came up over the beautiful volcano (see photo of the view below), Carlin turned around to find Brett on one knee asking her to spend the rest of her life with him. Shocked and beyond excited, she said yes! They are thrilled to celebrate with everyone they love!
