Big weddings are meh.

Our special day

After many discussions of a big wedding vs running off and getting married in Vegas we decided a small ceremony was the fairy tale beginning for this enchanting love we have found in each other . We love all of our friends and family and it brings us heavy hearts not being able to spend our special day together but we are happy to share our story of intimate wedding via this website and soon to come a video of our ceremony.

A wish on a shooting star

Meant to Be

Chris and I met online instantly becoming friends and found ourselves wanting to spend every minute together. We discovered we had many things in common with the food we like, activities we enjoy doing and the love we share for Volkswagen. Before long we couldn't deny the fact that we were meant to be together forever. I never expected my one "wish" to come true but here we are and I can't wait to become Mrs. Trina Saunders.

Proposal

Chris and I had plans to go enjoy Christmas lights because this last year was our first Christmas together. So on Christmas Eve with my Daughter and I, Chris took us to some places he knew in West Seattle because he had taken our girls the week prior when I was unable to go. We pulled up to this beautiful light display that was really cool because the lights followed along with Christmas music. I decided we should all get out of the car to get a better view. After a couple holiday songs Chris told me to step back so I could really get a better look at the lights. I stepped back to the curb and as the last song ended I was ready to get going to the next house. Just then the next song began and quickly I realized it was NOT a Christmas song. It was Bruno Mars “Will you Marry Me” and I look over at Chris and he is giving me his gorgeous puppy blue eyes. That’s when it dawned on me that OMG this is happening right now. Chris kneeled on one knee and told me that he knows it may be to soon but his life just hasn’t been the same since Harper and I came into his life. That his heart is so full of joy and love unlike ever before. He told me that he loves me and Harper and would like me to be his wife and beautiful Queen forever. Will you Marry Me? I am crying of course and without any doubt I said YES!!! Through my tears of joy and hugging my now fiance and daughter I hear people clapping and I look up to see that the christmas light show is saying MARRY ME TRINA!! This proposal caught me completely by surprise and had no idea this was coming. With the ways this amazing man has shown me love to this point, I knew that someday he would propose in the most romantic way. . Chris & Trina (Engaged 12-23-18)
