Who knows if it was the flash of those two big smiles, the flip of her curly locks with a little wink or the laugh they shared, but a chance meeting while out with friends at a local gathering spot was the beginning this fabulous journey. A journey that has grown and established the deepest of friendships, trust, love and the desire to create a happy life together. A few more flirtacious chats, fun outings with friends, and a real first date on a rainy New Year's Day revealed to Emily and Phil that even a crummy restaurant and terrible movie did not wipe the warm-fuzzy feelings away! Perhaps the journey to satisfy their souls had already begun! Togetherness became the norm and soon it was clear that LOVE was the name of this feeling they shared. Blending lives, careers, personalities and dreams has become the most amazing gift. Complete with a special "bonus" already deeply a part of their hearts - Nate! Now, it is a most joyous pleasure to share this blessing of commitment with family and friends. Celebrate the jubilance of Emily and Phil as they join their lives and bind their love with faith, dedication, respect, adoration and friendship.
