Real Weddings: Marci Brice and Thomas Dodier
This couple walked into wedded bliss wearing cowboy boots.
Ask Marci Brice how she met her husband, and she’ll say it wasn’t romantic. But Tommy Dodier made up for a lackluster first impression when he asked Marci to marry him four years later: he carved a heart with their initials into a tree at his ranch near Laredo. Both sported cowboy boots when they walked down the aisle June 6, 2009, at Rough Creek Lodge. After the color-soaked celebration, the couple departed on a monthlong road trip that was a true honeymoon adventure.
