OUR STORY

#MurphAmore

In October 2015, while Blake was stationed in Virginia Beach, he met Heather at a coffee shop in Norfolk. With Heather being a lifelong Navy brat, they quickly hit it off over their mutual love of travel and new experiences. Ever since, they've enjoyed countless adventures together. From skydiving and hiking, to skiing the Alps and exploring new cities, there's never been a dull moment.

On September 1st, 2016, Blake proposed to Heather during a trip to Rome, and two months later they settled into their new home in Sicily. Both currently pursuing their next degrees, they spend most of their time studying, but love to travel to new places any chance they get.

Given their love for their new home country and exploring the world, Heather and Blake have chosen to have their wedding in the heart of Tuscany. They are so excited to share this joy with friends and family, and hope that their guests get to enjoy an adventure of their own while they're here. 

XOXO
