We can't wait to share such a special day with all of our closest friends and family members in the city that we love so much, Tampa! Each one of you has played a special role in our lives, sharing memories with us that we will always treasure. Thank you for all of the constant love and support, and for always being our biggest fans through all of the ups and downs. Please continue to visit back here as we continue to knock days off the countdown, and we will continue to update you with details about our big day! xx, Michelle & James

If you ask me, I think the story of how we met is pretty darn good. I mean, who would have thought that a pink inflatable tube would lead to a wedding 7 years later? That's right, while participating in "beach week" so many years ago, I found myself being followed around the beach all day by a boy with an obsession with my pink inner-tube. Or at least that's what I thought his obsession was with at the time and clearly, I was wrong. It's still up for debate whether it was my Baywatch run into the ocean or the pink inner-tube that actually caught Jimmy's eye that day but that sweet boy chasing me around the beach sure did get my attention. Little did I know that our encounter at the beach back in 2011 would not only lead to many many Chilli's and Coldstone dates but also to the rest of our lives. Now here we are 7 years later and although we did life a little backwards, I wouldn't have chosen to do it any other way or with anyone else. October 20, 2018 can't come soon enough!
