An Elegant, Rustic Southern Brunch Barn Wedding at Southwind Hills near Norman, Oklahoma

Ashleigh, 23 and a teacher, and Chris, 24 and in the United States Coast Guard, went to the same high school, but didn't meet until they were introduced by mutual friends in college. They spoke one night for just a few minutes, and didn't meet again for six months. By coincidence, the two had surgeries on the same day and started chatting again when they were simultaneously bedridden. For their first date, the pair hobbled on crutches to the lake near Chris's home, where the romance truly began. Chris proposed a few weeks after Ashleigh graduated college while on a trip to Six Flags.
