A Rustic Burlap Wedding at The Grove in Sanger, California

"Tim and I have known each other since I was 2 and he was 6. We grew up in the small town of Sanger, CA and lived directly across the street from each other," says Heidi.?"We always knew each other, but because of the age difference as children, we never shared more than a friendly wave or simple hello." On a family trip to her cousin's house in Georgia, where Tim had moved, Heidi decided to reconnect with him and sent him a message on Facebook. "Tim and I ended up spending time together while I was in town and we talked and laughed for hours. Before I left for CA, we talked about the possibility of pursuing a long distance relationship. Not knowing if it'd work out, we continued to talk daily and build a relationship that was based on a friendship," she says. Later that year, Tim planned a trip out to California that included a dinner with both of the couple's families where he eventually proposed. "Apparently I was so shocked that he had to ask me twice before I said yes!" Heidi admits.
