How did you meet?

One of my best friends from growing up started dental school at MCV just about the same time I accepted a position in the Richmond area and relocated from Charlottesville. She and I went out to dinner one night in October of 2007 and afterwards she suggest we meet up with some of her classmates who were at a dental school social. That night changed our lives forever! Bo had just moved from Roanoke to start his first year of dental school. Our timing was perfect. We soon discovered we both were going through a rough time, each having lost a parent within months of meeting one another, and we immediately found comfort and compassion within one another. We knew pretty quickly that the love we shared was incredibly special, and that we were meant to be together.

stunning florals as always from Pat’s Floral Design!

What detail did you like best about your wedding day?

All day, I kept saying that at the Clifton, we had found a little piece of Heaven. It was just so picturesque and wonderful in every way. But, if I had to pick just one thing aside from the location, I’d have to say that the flowers were breathtakingly beautiful and truly set the scene that we had envisioned!

The butterfly that hung around after the release to hear their vows.  Do you believe?

What was your favorite moment during your wedding day?

I think we both finally relaxed after saying “I Do” so being presented as a couple for the first time and walking back towards the Inn, arm in arm. You captured on film my “we did it” gesture and after that, we both had huge smiles on our faces that seemed to last all night!

Yeah, I still bust out the old film cameras every once in a while!  Holgas rule!

What’s next on your calender as a couple?

The last several months have been such a whirlwind…Bo graduated from dental school and started a new job just a few weeks before we got married, so with that, board exams, the wedding, our honeymoon, his sisters wedding right when we got home…I think we are just really looking forward to having a normal schedule and  being home for the summer! We do have two weddings to look forward to at the end of the summer and I think we’re both excited to just be guests!!
