Colton & Bree Bramall April 23, 2017
Colton and I met at summer camp in Colorado before our junior year of high school. We were climbing a mountain, and I told my friend how cold my hands were. Colton introduced himself and offered me his gloves. We later had to run down the mountain because a bad storm was coming. He stayed with me the whole time. When hail came raining down, he stood over me and my friend to shelter us.
We started dating a year and a half later, after he stalked me on Facebook and saw that I liked to ride horses. He crashed one of mine and my friend’s horseback riding dates. He showed up dressed really nice to ride horses…he even wore cologne. About 3 years later, on the weekend of Colton’s birthday, he wanted to go shoot skeet. He first took me to Olive Garden, where we had our first date. While we were out in the woods shooting, he asked me to get more shells. When I looked inside the shell box, there was a “decoy” ring inside. I turned around and he was down on one knee with the real ring and the biggest smile on his face.
BreeAnna Faith Oyler me You mean the world to u I can't live without yo u I'm nothing without yo I need to be with you h you I need to grow old wit ways I need you by my side al Will you marry me? I got on my knees with him and said yes! We got home to an engagement party that Colton and my friend Ericka had put together!
When planning begun, we fell in love with Rockford Grange because it was so picturesque! We both wanted to have land in the country, and it had that feel for us. With the big red barn, lakes, stone cottage, rolling hills, majestic bison and elk, there was nothing we didn’t love about it. On our wedding day, I gave Colton a basket of letters written to “my future husband” that I started when I was 14. I wrote him every year waiting on the day I would know who he was. I told “my future husband” about my first Valentine’s Day with Colton when we were 18! The last letter was addressed to Colton instead of my future husband. I could hear his voice get shaky as he read some of the letters.
