Craig and Laura first met each other at a Labor Day BBQ in 2010. They were invited to the BBQ by mutual friends and hit it off right away. Craig had Laura laughing from the moment they met and Craig thought Laura was smart, cute and funny also! They didn’t exchange phone numbers at the time, but really enjoyed getting to know each other. A little over a month later, Laura and her neighbor went to a local restaurant to watch some college football. Little did Laura know, Craig was also at the same restaurant/bar sitting just a few seats away. They thought it was a weird coincidence running into each other again, seeing that the Labor Day BBQ was in East Naples and now they are running into each other in North Naples. As they began to talk more they realized they lived just a few miles apart in Bonita Springs. They also realized his football team Mississippi State and her team UF were playing each other in football that next Saturday. So they made it a date and have been together ever since! They chose to get married on the beach because of their love of the water and ocean. The Marco Island Marriot has beautiful wide beaches that made it an easy decision for their wedding! Please congratulate the newlyweds by leaving your comments below! 🙂
