Crate and Barrel's Ultimate Wedding Contest

Our love story.

On May 27, 2009, my fiancé Densey, a Chicago Police Officer, was paralyzed in a head-on collision while responding to a burglary call. He was in a coma for four weeks, but we were married in the hospital when he awoke. Almost a year later, Densey grows stronger daily, but our lives are forever changed. With mounting medical bills, we can¹t think about our dream wedding on a beach in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. Densey has a machine that helps him stand for 30 minutes. To see him waiting for me, words cannot describe the feeling that would give me.

Three important details about our Ultimate Wedding.

We would love to be on the Ocean for sure looking over on a mountain or on a beach, Mexico we thought but we have never been to Hawaii we would love to be able to fly out our close friends and family that have helped us so very much since the accident to celebrate our new growth and love and lives together. Also fine wine, I used to be a sommelier, now I take care of Densey.

Our everyday dream day.

To be peaceful to be by the water in the sun. with some shade of course we both have everything we need at our disposal. Everything handicap accessable and easy and stress free. Maybe a nice cruise on a boat ending with a nice long multicourse dinner.
