Erin + Nolan

How did you meet?

High School Sweethearts! Nolan + I have been together for 8 years!

When did you know they were the one? 

From the moment we “officially” met! A year before we started dating my aunt asked me if I could date anyone in the whole school who would it be?! I quickly responded “I would date Nolan Huiras!!!” My older sister (who is in the same class as Nolan) quickly reminded me that “Nolan would NEVER date you…”

A year later he was walking out of basketball practice + my sister dared me to kiss his hand. (Weird request right :)) That was the best decision I have made because now I’m married to the best man in the whole world!

Ladies – make the first move!! I promise it will be world it!!

What are your three favourite attributes of your partner? 

He is the kindest, most goofy, loving person I know. His love for the Lord is something I admire about him too! 🙂

Who proposed and how? 

Nolan proposed on the golf course. We play at the Mayflower Golf Course in Fairfax, MN a couple times a week. On the course, from hole 6 to 7 there is a bridge. Ever since we started playing there Nolan has always stopped + kissed me on the bridge.

Well August 4th – Nolan stopped on that bridge, got on his knee + asked me to be his wife after 8 years together. He included my Papa, who was the only person around with us! It’s a testament to the kind heart + love for my family that Nolan has!

Where did you fall in love with your dress and why? 

I fell in love with my dress at A & BE in Minneapolis! Liv was my stylist + it was the first dress that I tried on!

Fun fact: the dress that I bought was the Ollie! My 4 year old Corgis name is OLLIE!!!  It was meant to be!!!

What was the best moment for you at your wedding?

The whole day was amazing! Such a dream – but officially being husband + wife in front of all of our family, friends + the Lord was the most magical moment!

What were your favourite details?

Simple single stem white roses!!!

What advice would you tell other brides?

Go with the flow + stay by your partner ALL day! The day goes SO fast + I am so glad Nolan + I stayed by each other the whole night to soak it in!! 🙂
