jessica + aaron’s story

“We met on Bumble,” says Jessica. “We talked for a long time and then he asked me to a movie. The rest was history.”

“We had been thinking of getting married for a while, but I wanted a nice ring and I wanted to pick it out,” shares Jessica. “He finally started to bug me to go ring shopping. It took me a bit to find the perfect ring.”

For the proposal, Aaron planned a private moment at home on their regular Tuesday night date night. “One Tuesday, I came home and he had decorated the entry way in our house….he got down on one knee and proposed!”

Jessica and Aaron planned their wedding in under 6 weeks with the help of Kristen Rauch of PK Weddings and Events, who Jessica says made the process simple and straightforward. “I did not go very traditional in many ways but I took what I wanted out of the traditions and used them to make our day,” she says.

Jessica’s favorite part of the day was posing for photos with Aaron. “It’s not something I can normally get Aaron to do with me. It gave us some nice quality time on our wedding day.”
