BRIANA & GARRETT

Garrett and I met after a day at the races in August 2019. I had been living in Boston at the time but would often come home to Saratoga to visit family and friends. We started dating from a distance that fall and saw each other on occasional weekends. Eventually the pandemic allowed me to spend a little more time at home. We really got a chance to get to know each other and our families during the summer of 2020.

I was loving my job in Boston and Garrett owns a custom apparel clothing company based out of Albany New York, so we dealt with the distance for a bit longer throughout the fall and winter. On Easter Sunday of 2021 we got engaged! About two weeks later I found out that my position would be opening in the upstate NY territory. What an affirmation! I moved back to Saratoga that July and I got to continue doing the same job but was able to be closer to all my people and my fiancé. We continued wedding planning throughout the summer. 

Having grown up in Saratoga, I could not have imagined getting married anywhere else. Our wedding day was the absolute best day of our lives, surrounded by the most amazing family and friends. We had guests come from 28 different states and Canada to witness and celebrate our special day.
