Life is filled with happiest days!

Hi I’m Shawn and he’s Kevin. Kevin and I met in San Francisco, at the Towering Inferno, true story. We were both temps at Embarcedero I where Charlton Heston filmed the Towering Inferno in the 70′s. In the 90′s our friendship began, our love story would take a bit longer. Kevin has a MBA in Economics from DePaul and a BA in Math from UC Santa Barbara. He is an adorable math geek and statistical reporter extraordinaire. My Grandmother called him Bank Man, also true story. However, he is also an accomplished oil painter and artist. He makes quilts too. My Renaissance Man, I know I gush. Kevin has an eye for detail and realistic painting. We’ve been married for 29 years and I still am amazed all that he is, artist, bank man, husband, and father.

I ( Shawn) have a MFA in Theatre from UC, Davis. I have spent over 20 years in professional theatre, educational theatre, community arts outreach, and collegiate teaching. I have also a profound love of visual arts and craft. Currently I work in ceramic sculpture. You may see my work installed at the Ithaca Airport.

Once Kevin and I got married, way back in 1997, we decided we wanted to focus our lives on creating a family, a business, and a life that truly reflected who we are and what we value. Our home is 100 hundred year old farmhouse complete with little red barn in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of upstate NY. We have two children and two dogs. After a couple of incarnations we also have the business that we always wanted as well, Happiest Days Designs!

We are honored and treasure the opportunity to help you create the wedding that celebrates the story of you!
