Alexis and Jordan Marshall

Alexis and Jordan’s Mountainside Proposal 5~7~22

How and or where did you meet?
Jordan and I met at the car dealership his family owns when I was 18. I had been working there since I was 16 and somehow did not know Jordan even existed until he started working here. Our encounters were always playful and full of joy.

How did you get proposed to?
Jordan had the ring for months but was waiting for the โ€œright placeโ€. In October of 2020 we took our first solo trip together to see family in Salt Lake City, Utah. On one of the last days there, we went to Wasatch Range to hike the beautiful mountain. Jordan has suggested we take pictures while there, which was a little unlike him, but I agreed! The ideal spot to him was very crowded so we hiked back down the trail a bit and he changed into a different shirt. While my cousin was taking pictures (not a single person knew he was going to propose), he turned to me and said, โ€œI told you I was waiting for the perfect spot, will you marry me?โ€ It was the easiest and most beautiful YES!

What was your favorite memory from your wedding day?
The whole day was absolutely beautiful! My favorite memory would be when Jordan and I read letters to each other right before our first look. It was one of the only moments we really had by ourselves, and it was so special! Then we turned to each other for first looks and everything became real. It was all smiling the rest of the day!

What was your experience like at Normans Bridal?
My experience at Normans was amazing! I came in thinking I knew what I wanted but it turns out I didnโ€™t. The first dress my stylist put me in was actually the dress I ended up purchasing!
