Jon & Chelsie Drake, a match made in Heaven

Here is an amazing couple Jon & Chelsie. They were so fun that we couldn't miss out on blogging about them. We wanted to share their story with you. Jon and Chelsie were set up by Chelsie's Dad. Yes, you heard me right, Chelsie's Dad picked his own son in-law. How lucky is he? Chelsie's Dad was in the Bishopric (leadership in the LDS church) at a singles ward where Jon attended. Chelsie was living in Los Angeles at the time and her Dad really wanted them to meet so he flew Chelsie home to go on a date with Jon. Jon must have been excited to go with Chelsie because he was still recuperating from a sports injury and showed up with a cane and wheelchair to pick her up. Jon insisted they still go to dinner in spite of his injuries. They obviously hit it off.



Jon proposed to Chelsie on her birthday. They went to dinner with Chelsie's entire family at Teppanyaki. Jon had bought a Nothing Bundt Cake with a huge pink flower in the middle and then he placed the cake in front of Chelsie while everyone was singing happy birthday. There was a a beautiful ring sitting inside the flower on top of the cake and Chelsie turned around to see Jon on his knee. With tears streaming down her face, she said "Yes!".

Jon and Chelsie are such a fun couple they enjoy each others company and love to do everything together. They do have to admit that their favorite past time is golf. They love the peacefulness and beauty of it being just them and the golf course.

Jon & Chelsie's song is "You And Me" by Lifehouse.

They honeymooned in the beautiful Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. They loved every minute of it and look forward to their exciting future together.

My favorite part about Jon & Chelsie is what they said about each other.

Jon said that what he likes the most about Chelsie is "She always knows how to brighten the situation. Apart from the fact that she is the most beautiful girl, she never ceases to surprise me. I love the way she loves me."

Chelsie said that what she likes the most about Jon is "Other than his incredibly handsome dimples is his love for me and his patience. Jon knows me better than I know myself, which makes him such a wonderful husband."

We are so glad they found each other. Congratulations to an incredible couple. We wish you always to have lots of love and happiness in your lives together.
Thanks for letting Swensen Photography share your love story.
