Bret Thomas & Heather Nelson
Location: Couples Resort, Ocho Rios
Well, the short version so I can fit it all.. We met about 5 years ago and began as good friends, then about a year later we started dating, but never expecting it to take us this far! He has been the greatest thing to happen to me and I am so glad we found each other. He had the best engagement I have ever heard of- with Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, which left us both speechless and crying!! And he even included our families, which he knew was very important to me. We now have bought a house (that we are fixing up) are both struggling, but doing our best to get through college, working full-time and enjoy staying home with all our animals and love hanging out with all our friends! We are so excited about starting our life together and I know I sure cannot wait until I am Mrs. B Thomas!!
Our wedding is in Ocho Rios, Jamaica at the Couples Resort. When we arrive we will take a tour of the resort with the coordinator and choose our perfect spot! We will be married June 20th at 11am so please wish us the best and think of us that day! I have my dress already, which I love, and Bret will wear more of a casual type outfit like a white shirt and linen or tan pants. Unless he decides he wants a tux, but I think he would be more comfortable in the other. I think we will most likely choose a wedding gazebo instead of the actual beach, but I guess we will have to decide in person! And we will definitely have lots of pics to send everyone!!
The reception will be planned after we get back and will be very simple, but we will let everyone know as soon as possible!
We will leave from Dallas on June 16th and arrive in Jamaica four hours later, we then arrive in Montego Bay and have a two hour drive to our resort in Ocho Rios, but the travel agent told us that we stop half way at a little market place to eat and shop. We will return on June 23rd.
Thank-you to EVERYONE – We LOVE YOU ALL and wish you could be there with us!! We truly appreciate everyone for all the help with our special day. Love, Bret and Heather **For everyone’s info the items on our registry can also go towards extra additions to our wedding day such as photography packages, and videotaping the ceremony for everyone to see when we get back!! Thanks again for all the great help!!
