I Said, "YES!!"

2015 has been a year of BIG NEWS and PLANNING!!

On New Year's Eve, Mack and I got engaged!!  It was the sweetest proposal and such a memorable and special night!!  He SURPRISED me with a beautiful ring that was absolutely perfect.  And I'm still smiling from the excitement!

And then began the PLANNING!  I ordered the Erin Condren Wedding Planner and Mack and I started making plans for our Big Day!

We are tying the knot on June 11, 2016 at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina!  And can't wait!

And every engagement needs and ENGAGEMENT PARTY!!  And not just any engagement party, but a tailgate engagement party of course!!

Mack's parents hosted a tailgate engagement party at the University of Tennessee (Mack's FAVORITE).  We celebrated before the game on September 12 when Tennessee played Oklahoma.  What a perfect day and an awesome celebration!

Lots of family and friends came to celebrate and enjoy our special day!

My favorite part, "VOL WALK"

Tailgate complete with commemorative cups! 

And of course we had some VIP VOLS visit our tent, too! 

The game was fantastic!  The fans did the "Checkerboard Neyland" campaign, we were in a "white" section.  It made for a spirited scene and the stadium was LOUD with chants of Rocky Top!

What wonderful memories and great way to celebrate our engagement.  We are so thankful for all of our family and friends and can't wait to continue to celebrate as we lead up to our Big Day!

*FYI:  I am STILL the #1 Golden Eagle fan, just in case you were wondering.  ;)
