♥ ((beginning))- When Tom walked in to Carino's restaurant for a job interview Darbie was the hostess standing at the front desk. Their eyes met and an instant attraction was formed. As Tommy nervously waited up front for his interview, Darbie oogled over how CUTE he was. (Tommy says he felt the same). After the interview Darbie told her manager to hire him, ust so she could at least look at him..haha. After starting at Carinos Tom and Darbie didn't talk much, but the connection was always there. Darbie was involved in another relationship, but couldn't help her ever growing feelings for Tom. On Darbie's last night at work, Tom asked for her phone number so they could keep in touch as friends. The next day Darbie received a text stating, "How is my favorite hostess today?". From there on the texting continued and eventually Darbie' s former relationship ended, thus giving Tom the courage to ask her on a first date. Their first date was picture perfect and so they continued. After casually dating a month, Tom escorted Darbie to her senior prom and shortly after asked if they could be "official". After two weeks they exchanged I love yous and knew they were meant to be. ♥ ((the big proposal))- After dating for almost ten months, Tom went to Darbie's parents and asked their permission for her hand in marriage. After the family's consent Tom began planning the big day. On January 31st, 2009 Tom planned a romantic day of nothing but dates, starting with a romantic lunch to Tom and Darbie's favorite sushi restaurant. After stuffing their faces with sushi the plan was for a nice winter walk down by Shoshone Falls in the Twin Falls canyon. The road down was blocked, but they still decided to park up top and hike down. The brisk winter walk was romantic enough in itself and then when they arrived at the Falls viewing dock the magic happened. As Darbie was peering over the edge at the falls she felt a tug on her coat. When she turned around Tom was on one knee and told her, 'she would make him the happiest man alive if she would marry him and be with him forever'. Of course Darbie said yes and thus the fairytale ever after began! ♥ ((lookin' to the future))- Darbie and Tom both plan to finish school and support each other every step of the way. In the next few years they want to try living in some new places and enjoying time together before starting a family. God will be guiding them through it all!

♥ ((the big day))- Tom and Darbie have chosen for the ceremony to be at the First Christian Church located on Shoshone street in Twin Falls. Darbie's parents were married in this church, thus making the location ever more special. They want an intimate setting that not only expresses both of their personalities, but also has a unique mixed with traditional flair. The ceremony will most importantly express the Christian values the bride and groom proudly share together. The attire will be semi-formal/casual so everyone can be as comfortable as possible while in attendence.

♥ (( the after party))- The reception will be immediatly following the ceremony and will be located at the Twin Falls Turf Club located on Fall Avenue, where there will be cake, food and tons of dancing! ♥ ((what to where))- As in the ceremony, Tom and Darbie want everyone to be comfortable and enjoy their day of commitment, so they just ask for semi-formal/casual attire. There will be lots of dancing at the reception so come prepared!

♥ ((perfect time of year))- Tom and Darbie chose the month of July for their wedding festivities thus making it possible for a beautiful Idaho summer day! Weather forcast should be sunny and warm and both locations are in Twin Falls, Idaho. Parking can be down around the church and across the church at the Twin Falls City park. For reception parking, the Turf Club has a vast parking lot that will accomidate guests.
