Brittany and Harrison are your classic high school sweethearts! Brittany was 14 years old minding her own business when Harrison, 16, peaked her interest as he was running around the house chasing a dog at their mutual friends’ house. After Brittany sparked more interest in Harrison, he finally asked her out on June 1st 2006.
After dating for eight years, the couple went on a cruise with Harrison’s family where he finally popped the question on the beach in Cozumel, Mexico.
Brittany says, “Harrison knows that my other favorite spot, besides in his arms, is the beach!”
So 10 years and 10 days later the couple got married on June 11th, 2016.
Brittany said the best moment of her wedding day was the “first look”. She was so nervous about being in front of so many people, but as soon as she saw Harrison, all the worries went away. The bride was absolutely breathtaking in gown from Hope’s Bridal and her bridesmaids in spa colored dresses from David’s Bridal. The men wore tuxedos from Special Effects by Cindy. The couple used the 18 passenger VIP Limo Bus for their transportation for that day. We just love the photos in front of the bus!
The couple honeymooned in Negril, Jamaica, where they stayed at a place called Couples Swept Away. Besides relaxing and shopping, the couple filled their days with activities, including: a glass bottom boat ride where they got to hold live star fish, climbed waterfalls, snorkeled and parasailed.
Brittany’s advice for future brides would be to just breathe! “Don’t sweat the small stuff”, Brittany says. “Remaining calm will help you to enjoy the moment and the beautiful day that you and your loved ones have created.” Great advice Brittany!
