We were married in September 2003 on the beach in Destin, FL.  For those of you who have not experienced the beauty of the white sands of the Emerald Coast - go to our Wedding Page to see some of the wedding photographs, or review the Destin visitors guide here.

A BRIEF HISTORY

Jen hails from Brooklyn, although spent most of her life growing up in Plano, TX.  She schooled at Shepton High School, then Plano Senior High and graduated from Texas Tech.

Mark grew up in Dundee, Scotland then moved to Edinburgh to start his career with Arthur Andersen.  Lots of travel followed, finally selling everything and moving to the Middle East to work and live.  After a great year or so in Abu Dhabi where I learned to scuba dive, I moved to a town named Iwakuni, just south of Hiroshima and very close to one of the most beautiful islands in Japan - Miyajima.  Another year or so later work moved him to Houston, TX, where he met Jen, and the rest is history! 

We  now live in North Dallas - lots of pretty good entertainment and activities here, and we are close enough to one of the most awesome airports in the country to get anywhere!  Some of the things we enjoy in Dallas:
