Heather knew she would be friends with her new co-worker, Scott Coppock, when she met him on his first day as a personal trainer at their gym. Heather and Scott did everything together. Then one day Scott went in for a kiss. Heather turned him down, explaining she thought of him only as a friend. A few weekends later, the tables turned. Scott met Heather's family and after seeing how he interacted with them, her feelings started to grow. That night she tried to kiss Scott…but was denied. The Bride Heather La Sasso, 27, personal trainer The Groom Scott Coppock, 30, financial adviser The Date July 19 Heather jokes that after Scott evened the score, their relationship changed. They dated for four years before Scott decided to give Heather a fairy-tale ending. He laid out an elaborate scavenger hunt for lucky stones in a story that began, High in the mountains of Scottsland there lived a beautiful blue-eyed, blonde-haired princess… On each page was a clue to the next stone. Once Heather found all of the stones, the final page gave her a choice. Anyone may trade the three stones for the love of one person. That's when Heather yelled, I choose the love of Scott! Then Scott dropped to one knee and made Heather the happiest girl in all the land.

A cream fondant base made the sunny yellow sugar flowers pop against the four-tiered confection.
The band was the highlight of the party, playing a mix of all genres. They even learned the couple’s favorite song, When You Love Someone, by Brian Adams, for their first dance.
Heather coordinated her signature color with her favorite flower for her bouquet -- bright yellow calla lilies. Her bridesmaids carried a paler shade of yellow.
Relying on the beauty of the museum to captivate their guests, the couple only needed simple touches during the ceremony, like luscious yellow garden roses and cream-colored ribbon marking each aisle of chairs.
Fresh cream-colored linens topped the tables beneath tall arrangements of yellow orchids and votive candles. Heather's signature bloom, a single yellow calla lily, floated inside the narrow vase.
The bridesmaids' buttery yellow gowns and similarly hued bouquets were a soft and subtle contrast to Heather's brilliant yellow calla lilies.
