The Shaul Family
established 2017

The best thing about 2017:

We got married!!! It was truly the best day ever… but we have to say, marriage is even better!

Highlights:

Our wedding celebrations with family and friends! Bridal shower, couples shower, bachelor (in Buffalo) and bachelorette (in Charlottesville) weekends, bridesmaid luncheon, rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and wedding

Our relaxing, luxurious, incredible honeymoon in Antigua

Vacations to visit family in NYC (and attend the US Open) and the Outer Banks (and a lot of smaller weekend visits in between!)

Becoming members of our church, Vintage, going through pre-marital counseling there, being a part of the leadership team of our community group, and serving on the welcome/communion team at church

Celebrating six months of marriage and one year of being engaged (both fall on October 1!) in our favorite Charlottesville
