Words can not describe how adorable Jeremy and Amanda’s engagement story was, but I’ll do my best.

I met Jeremy and Amanda at Decades and we chatted about how they got together, their life experiences and obviously the details of their wedding. Amanda has done some world traveling through missionary work, India being her favorite country and Jeremy spent many years growing up in Mexico as a missionary’s kid. Great match.  Jeremy is the more adventurous one, while Amanda will go along with just about anything. They shared  with me their proposal and I was blown away by  how creative and thoughtful it was, good job Jeremy.

It all started with a knock on Amanda’s door. As she opened the door she was expecting Jeremy to be there , instead she found a red envelope and a stranger named Travis. Travis also had with him a dvd cam to capture the whole adventure! Throughout the day they traveled to different places and with each place came a task and another clue, it was Amanda’s Amazing Race.
To give you an idea of Amanda’s tasks some of them were, completing a Rubiks cube, jumping into the freezing cold Cultas Lake to grab a balloon with a clue inside, leading some songs in worship, preaching a sermon for a half filled Yarrow Church and preparing and eating  Jeremy’s favorite appys Mushroom caps (she HATES mushrooms!)  Amanda, I can’t wait to hear what he does for your ten year anniversary!

After their May wedding I’ll post a video of the whole thing, because you just need to see it!!!

In my husbands words after watching the video, “That was so cute, I’m glad I watched it.” ( I forced him to watch the video) And in my six year olds words ” I want to do that, and with you mommy.”

Thank you guys for sharing the video with us.

Like I already said, words can’t really tell this story in full you will need to come back and check out the video Travis made after their May wedding.

Bridal Falls,  was her check in at the end of the race.

So cute!

I love these white berries… I have no idea what they are called but as kids we called them pop berries. 

Beautiful Felt LOVE banner was handmade by my lovely and talented sister ~ So perfect for them!

This one below is one of my faves! I love how throughout the day he had the ability to just make Amanda bust out laughing!!!

You two are perfectly matched!

Loving this one too…  

Amanda and Jeremy told me how they love to play this card game and they played it all the time when they first started dating. We were chatting about it at Starbucks at our first meeting and I thought we need to bring it! I noticed when Amanda posted some of these portraits on her facebook that lots of their friends were making comments like “It’s that game you two always play!” I’m so glad  we brought it!
