You have been seeing Jack for only a year, but it has been a whirlwind romance from your very first date! On said date he showed up to Per Se to pick you up from work and he even brought you beligan chocolates. From there he took you out to do a very upscale date - a private pastry lesson with Johnny Iuzzini - and you two had a fantastic time. You had so much in common - animals, fiction and cooking. After your date he takes you for a walk through Central Park and the two of you discuss your desires, hopes and dreams together. His love of writing and food and your own wish to one day open your own restaurant one day. The next thing you notice and the sun is coming up, you two have spent all night out in the park just talking. Since then you take every one of your days off and spend it with Jack. As much as you have worried in the past that having a relationship might do damage to your career you find that since you started seeing Jack your palate had become better and you're working harder than before to strive for your dreams because now you have someone to share it with and that someone appreciates your drive and passion.
Your relationship moves fast in that first year and you honestly have no idea how you have lived your life without Jack as a part of it. On the morning of your one year anniversary, Jack wakes you up with breakfast in bed featuring the three flavors of the desserts you fed to him the night you first met - salted caramel, jackfruit and white truffle. Then you notice a box on the breakfast tray and open it up to to reveal an engagement ring! It is a beautiful Vintage Engagement Ring. You say yes without any hesitation and cannot believe how excited you are to be engaged to Jack. However your realize you have so much to do! It takes you and Jack a whole year in and of itself to plan the wedding, but by the time it's done you know it is perfect, the wedding you have always dreamed of.
We've been so busy picking the theme and colors and choosing all the goes into a wedding but we think we may finally have it down, even if it is a little mismatched since everyone wanted something different! I had my dress picked out from the minute he proposed, a beautiful exotic wedding dress. Jack wanted a red and gold color theme and we wanted roses for the flower arrangements! Jack picks out the most handsome suit - red and white. We all wanted the wedding to be a small affair at his family home. I knew that there was no way that anyone, but myself was going to make my wedding cake and so I worked tirelessly on it until I had a wonderful red and gold elegant wedding cake.
Finally the day came and Jack and I were married! My head chef - Thomas Keller - insisted he cook the meal for us and it was spectacular and was focused on salted caramel, jackfruit and white truffle. The meal was divine! My father walked me down the isle and Jack's best man even cried as we said our vows! The guests were surprised at how the wedding turned out with so many different styles but everyone agreed that it fit perfectly! There were lots of pictures taken! As the day came to a close we all went to take a well deserved rest.
The very next day, Jack and I left on our honeymoon to Barcelona! We spent two weeks having a blast. We went to the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia, had a private Paella cooking class, toured the Alta Alella vineyard and picnicked on tapas on the beach.
