We're so excited to celebrate with you!

As many of you know, our dream was to have a destination wedding. But, like the title says, 2020 happened and it has carried into 2021. For the sake of keeping our friends and family safe, we have decided to keep it small and local. We are now going to be married in front of all of you on November 7th, 2021.

A friend of Kirsten's was living with Shane at the time and Kirsten stopped by before work to see her friend. As soon as Kirsten saw Shane walking out of the house, she knew she had to have him. Kirsten left for work with her friend and later that night she sent Shane a text message from her friend's phone and said "Hey, it's Kirsten.. Something is wrong with my phone, your number is not in it. ;)" and after that, they exchanged numbers and the rest is history. They truly clicked, without skipping a beat.

It was Thanksgiving, 2018. Shane always told Kirsten "I do not like holiday proposals... I will NEVER propose on a holiday" and Kirsten still doesn't know if this was Shane's plan all along to throw her off or what, but it worked. Both of their families were there and Shane wanted everyone to go downstairs to the bar to take a shot before sitting down for dinner. Kirsten was standing at the bar, talking to her Dad when Shane called her name from behind her. When she turned around, Shane was on one knee with the most BEAUTIFUL ring and he said "I am Jonesing to make you a Finnegan" with Brielle wearing a shirt that said "Mommy, will you finally" and Carson wearing a shirt that said "marry our Daddy?!" *que the tears, from everyone in the house*! It was perfect.... unexpected.... AND Kirsten's nails were done!
