Bailey and Aaron met on a blind date. A coworker of Bailey’s was trying to set Aaron up with someone else, but then Bailey caught a glimpse of his photo!
“I told her I wanted him for myself!” she said.
Bailey suggested a group meetup, but ever the romantic – Aaron countered by suggesting a date for just the two of them. It was love at first site, and the dinner lasted 5 hours!
“I knew that night I had found the man of my dreams. It was the perfect night, and I will never forget it,” Bailey said.
And soon, they began to prep for their most unforgettable day yet: their New Orleans wedding day! As we all know, a lot of planning goes into weddings and can be a stressful time!
