They were in the same grade. They were great friends and had mutual friends all through high school. Joshua and Toni didn&#8217;t start dating until the summer going into freshman year of college. June 28th to be exact. He was going to Missouri S&amp;T and she was attending Mizzou. The lovely couple decided to try the long-distance thing and 7 years and a pandemic later, they married June 28th, 2020.<\/p>\n<h3>The proposal<\/h3>\n<p>&#8220;It was November 2018 and Josh and I had just moved to Kansas City that August. Josh decided to plan a surprise date night the weekend after I came home from a weekend girls&#8217; trip to Cancun with my mom and sister. (Note: I was tan and had my nails done.) He said he had reservations for a nice steak dinner. I was stressed all day about what to wear and I really wanted to curl my hair but didn&#8217;t have time so I was a little flustered. Pus I had only eaten on thing early in the morning so I was very hangry! We drove about 30 minutes and he pointed out this old church place that he said he knew someone that worked there. He got off the highway and pulled into the parking lot.<\/p>\n<p>He said let&#8217;s go walk around. I was like what? We&#8217;re going to be late for our reservations! (They were in 5 minutes.)\u00a0 He said no it&#8217;s fine, it&#8217;s right around the corner. I was like uh okay fine. Haha. I was very confused. So we walked around the place, and it was beautiful. We even saw a wedding party taking photos nearby. Then he stopped me by this beautiful fountain, grabbed my hands, and started saying a lot of sweet stuff I really don&#8217;t remember. I was in shock, I started balling, and he got down on one knee and proposed. I said yes, then a hidden photographer came out and introduced himself and we had an hour session of professional photos taken around this beautiful place!!!&#8221; &#8211; Toni<\/p>\n<p>Toni and Joshua tied the knot on June 28th, 2020 at the beautiful <a href=\"https:\/\/piazzamessina.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Piazza Messina<\/a>. The Ceremony was held outside of Piazza Messina, in Cottleville.<\/p>\n<h2>Toni and Joshua&#8217;s Fun Summer Piazza Messina Wedding<\/h2>\n<p>The Piazza Messina wedding location is the perfect location for an indoor\/outdoor wedding.

The venue is also home to a 4-acre lake that is perfect for reflecting light to capture the best photo. They also have a bridal cottage which is perfect for getting hair and makeup coverage.<\/p>\n<h3>The perfect wedding attire.<\/h3>\n<p>All of the groomsmen are looking dashing in their dark navy blue suits from <a href=\"https:\/\/savviformalwear.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Saavi Formalwear<\/a>.
