L OV E from Carrie... Jason and I met online. He is my best friend and my rock. I have truly found my soulmate. I have always wanted a destination wedding, since I was a child. My best friend and photographer, Jennifer Birkenmeyer helped me pick out the venue and begin organizing. She is the best! I knew I wanted something tropical, but was not set on the location. Jennifer found Peggy on Instagram and that’s where it all started. They both helped alongside our florist, Danielle Lebo to bring my vision to life. I have dreamed of getting married ever since I was a child. I am an art teacher and artist; and interior design and decoration are my true pas- sions. I have decorated for everyone’s wedding under the sun. My wedding was definitely a fairytale come true. Surrounded by all my friends and family and everyone I love in paradise. “ 19
