Backyard Waterfront Ceremony Setup

"The first time Dan visited me in Annapolis, Maryland, we sat on the dock in my parents' backyard, looked up at the stars and talked," Jess says. "I was about to move to Italy for nearly a year, and Dan was headed back to his home in Los Angeles, California. We didn’t know what would happen, but he had his arm around me, and in that moment we were so thoroughly happy and at peace. That was the first of many happy moments we had there, so that's where we exchanged our vows."
