Kelly + Reid denver

Kelly and Reid met in Student Senate while attending college in Cedar Rapids. Although the two started off as just friends, Kelly always had her eyes on Reid. Their chemistry finally sparked on Student Flunk Day - a day of campus wide shutdowns, celebrations and fundraising at local bars around the city. Just as the bar was closing down that night, the two bellied up only to get “iced”. Kelly and Reid were challenged by a mutual friend to chug a bottle of Smirnoff Ice together. A few weeks later, they were inseparable! The couple dated for five years before making things official. Kelly anticipated a ring as she is known to be quite the planner. However, Reid knew just the trick to surprise her. One day Kelly’s sister asked her to go out for a manicure and pedicure before Kelly’s night shift as a labor and delivery nurse. On her way to the hospital she got a call from her boss saying that they didn’t need her to come in. Although slightly shaken from the last minute change, Kelly returned home only to find Reid and their chocolate lab, Milo, in the back yard waiting for her. Milo carried a sign around his neck that read,”Will you marry my Dad?” Completely swept off her feet, Kelly said, “Yes!” They planned a Tuscan inspired celebration in Kelly’s parent’s backyard for a beautiful summer day in August.
