I wanted to share more about her and her fianc\u00e9 and their awesome story. When I read Morgan&#8217;s story it meant a lot to me since it involves their son. I know how having Ella changed our love and only made it stronger and I believe they have felt that too. Here&#8217;s another great love story that we get to share to the world.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>What is your fianc\u00e9&#8217;s name?<br \/>\nChris Hight<\/p>\n<p>When\/how did you meet?<br \/>\nIn college (Shorter College in Rome, GA) through mutual friends<\/p>\n<p>How long did you date?<br \/>\nWe started dating on May 15, 2007 and have been inseparable ever since!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Anything special you&#8217;d like to share about dating him?<br \/>\n\u00a0Chris is my best friend. I love how he can make me laugh no matter how bad my day\u00a0<br \/>\nwas. He is the most amazing person I have ever met. When we met, we were nothing but a\u00a0<br \/>\ncouple of college kids who were in love and lived only for the moment. On April 19,\u00a0<br \/>\n2009, I gave birth to our son. Our love for each other has done nothing but become\u00a0<br \/>\nmore strong and real. I still get butterflies everytime he looks at me. He is an\u00a0<br \/>\namazing father and I can&#8217;t wait til the day when I can call him my husband.<\/p>\n<p>When\/how did you get engaged?<br \/>\nWe got engaged on April 8, 2009. I had been out of town with my mom visiting my\u00a0<br \/>\nsister. When I got home, he walked into the closet and asked me to come in there to\u00a0<br \/>\nask me about an outfit we had received at one of our baby showers. When I walked in he\u00a0<br \/>\nwas down on one knee and asked me to be his wife!<\/p>\n<p>Were you surprised?<br \/>\nWe had definitely talked about marriage and we had went to look at rings. Toward the\u00a0<br \/>\nend of my pregnancy we decided that we wanted to get married before our son was born,\u00a0<br \/>\nso I knew it was coming. We were just going to have a simple ceremony with just our\u00a0<br \/>\nfamily and closest friends. I just didn&#8217;t know when. Then, he told me that we just\u00a0<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t have the money and wasn&#8217;t able to buy me a ring. So he was pretty sneaky about\u00a0<br \/>\nit. We didn&#8217;t get to get married because I went into labor a week before our wedding!!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What is your ring like?<br \/>\nGorgeous! He knew I didn&#8217;t want anything original or traditional. It is a round\u00a0<br \/>\nstone with smaller diamonds going around it in a circle. The band of it also has\u00a0<br \/>\ndiamonds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Any details of your wedding plans that you would like to share?\u00a0<br \/>\n\u00a0I just recently got my wedding dress! We have somewhat set a date. September 4, 2010\u00a0<br \/>\n(hopefully). It&#8217;s a special day to us because it&#8217;s my grandparents wedding\u00a0<br \/>\nanniversary. We hope and pray we can be together as long as they have been (54 years!)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>We are looking forward to talking to Morgan more as we find a time and the perfect location for the shoot. We&#8217;ll be sure to post some of the photos from the shoot. I&#8217;m sure we&#8217;ll get some gorgeous pictures of Morgan in her dress!!<\/p>\n<!-- Start Shareaholic Recommendations Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic Recommendations Automatic -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are so very excited to announce the winner of a free Bridal Photoshoot from the Formal Affair\u00a0Bridal Show.
