A huge congratulations to newlyweds Brenna and Tom who were married this past September with our vintage-inspired Degas and Van Gogh rings! Brenna sent over the sweetest recap of their romance, so we'll let her take it from here!

Tom and I met at the end of 2014 at Octane Coffee in Atlanta, where we both lived at the time. He was a cute guy reading a book on European travel and happened to have the only seat left at the place right next to him. So I sat down and began chatting with him which ended up leading to 2 hours of just sitting and getting to know each other. We began dating after New Years. Tom was in medical school and was matched to the University of Michigan for his residency program, so while neither of us had thought about the possibility of moving in together it turned out perfectly. We were engaged by the end of 2015, in a very non-romantic way haha. Tom came home one day ran up the stairs called my dad and then came sprinting out of the room and proposed. We followed the proposal with a bike ride and tacos, while this isn't romantic it fits our super relaxed lifestyle.

Fast forward a year to our wedding on a rainy September Saturday, everyone is panicking about the rain and running rampantly about, but Tom and I just stayed calm. The sun came out and the ceremony proceeded as planned. Everything ended up going so perfectly and looking so wonderful, and the rain left everything looking shiny and crisp for our photos. The English Inn couldn't have been a more quintessential Michigan location, Tom and I adored everything about it from its brick walls to the Michigan pines, it couldn't have been a cuter place. While neither of us were the ones who thought we would enjoy having a wedding, it turned out to be a perfect day.

Congratulations! Thanks so much for choosing to make your special purchase (twice!) with Trumpet & Horn ♥ !
