Real Wedding- Amanda and Emmett

In a recent discussion with an Admiral Room http://www.admiralroom.com couple we asked them to share some of their love story.

Amanda and Emmett: We met through mutual friends in college. One of my roommates was dating one of his fraternity brothers. We met one night when my roommate’s boyfriend invited us to hangout at their fraternity and the rest is history!

He proposed right around our 6th anniversary.  I was surprised but we had always talked about getting married, I just didn’t know when or how he would actually propose.

We called all of our family and friends the night he proposed. When we got back to Buffalo, my grandparents were there and my parents had bought us some balloons. I moved out of Buffalo shortly after we got engaged, but we came back for Thanksgiving that year. My friends threw us a surprise engagement party at our annual Friendsgiving get together which was really sweet.

We chose the Admiral room for our wedding because it exudes elegance. It is so beautiful, and we were able to have both the ceremony and reception there. That was important to us. Because my family is so big, the guest list was naturally pretty large. The venue itself is beautiful, but it was all of the little things that made us fall in love with it. The staff was amazing and made us feel like we were taken care of the whole day. The food was delicious, and the chef was flexible with the meals. I loved that we were able to get ready and take all of our pictures at the venue. It lessened any stress of traveling or falling behind.

My father and I practiced for our father daughter dance for 6 months. We wanted to surprise everyone, so the only people who knew we were doing a choreographed dance were my mom and my sister. I mashed together and bunch of songs and we came up with a dance. It was so fun! When we danced in front of everyone it was so amazing and it went so well!

The most exciting part of the day was being able to see everyone we love the most all in the same room. My husband’s family lives all over and now that I’m not in Buffalo, we don’t get to see our family and friends as much as we used to. It was so fun to see all of our favorite people at once.

Amazing vendors that contributed to this special day:

Attention couples of fur babies: We’ve compiled some of the most adorable pet wedding photos from the http://www.admiralroom.com .
See some of the ideas so you can include your favorite best friend, your dog, into your special day.   Whether you own a cat, dog, rabbit, reptile, there are many ways to have your animal play a special role in the big day.
When considering pet wedding ideas, first take into account your pet’s demeanor and whether your venue, http://www.admiralroom.com allows pets on the premises.
Many couples choose to have their furry companions present for the “I dos” and reception festivities. Have your dog walk down the aisle with the bridesmaids, or stand with the groomsmen as you say your vows.
We have seen dogs here dress in bow ties or a tutu.   Give your pup a bowtie that matches those of the groomsmen, or a little dress so your fur baby can be an honorary flower “dog”.
We have a wonderful recommendation of a pet sitter for your animal (just not dogs):
