Jennifer and Jon's story of how they met, fell in love, and are getting married is truly so sweet. Jennifer is in the Navy and Jon is in the Marine Corps, and as fate would have it while Jon was stationed in San Diego, Jennifer's ship had just moved into San Diego. They connected through Tinder & completely hit it off on the first date. By the second month of dating they were already so in love and knew they were meant to be with each other. Jon proposed in June which included wine tasting, helicopter ride over San Diego, and a beautiful dinner cruise. I mean come on!!

Here is what Jen said about the ring that was so special: "The diamond was the center stone from my grandmother's wedding ring and that touches every bit of my heart. My grandparents were happily married for almost 35 years before they passed and my grandmother has always been one of the most special people in my life. I know that her strength, love, and wisdom will forever guide me through any obstacles that we will face and I am so blessed to be able to be given something so fantastic. "

We are so excited to photograph their wedding TOMORROW at Cross Creek Ranch (one of my favorite local Tampa venues.) If you are a potential bride searching for a rustic wedding venue, definitely check them out. Here are some of my favorite images below:
