Benton residents Crystal Kelly of Norwich, N.Y. and Marcus Haner of Jacksonville are set to say "I do" this Saturday, March 23 at the Junior League of Little Rock. The lucky couple won the Dream Wedding Giveaway that Cottonwood Studios Worldwide organized with Christopher Nolan Photography last year, and boy did they win big!
Besides engagement photos by Christopher and Nancy Nolan and wedding photos by Kari and Caleb Nichols of Cottonwood Studios, they also won services from Young Designs and Central Arkansas Entertainment, a cake from Blue Cake Company, florals from House of Flowers and videography from Sunflower Films. "My fiancé was so shocked and literally teared up when they told us," Crystal says. "It really has been a blessing to us and our families."
Now check out the couple's love story in Crystal's own words. We can't wait to see the wedding!
Marcus and I met through mutual friends at a concert at Verizon Arena more than four years ago. We became best friends from the start and hung out every day since the day we first met. We both knew anything and everything about one another. He's been such a positive force in my life and has truly brought out the best in me. I cant wait to marry my best friend next Saturday!
