Bridget & Dale

The Bride
A short snippet about the bride.
Bridget grew up in Madison, Wisconsin where she learned to love wildlife, the Great Lakes and (more importantly) good cheese. She stayed in Wisconsin for her undergraduate degree before heading to Michigan to vet school where she met Dale. She moved to Florida for her internship and residency and now works as a zoo vet at the University of Florida. When she isn’t busy at work, Bridget is taking care of the zoo she’s built at home (sorry Dale) which includes five tortoises, two lizards, and the best bunny on the planet.
The Groom
A short snippet about the groom.
Dale grew up in Laingsburg, Michigan and also grew up on the Great Lakes and Crystal Lake every summer. He started undergraduate school at the University of Hawaii before returning to Central Michigan University to finish his degree. He moved to California to kick-off his photography career and returned to Michigan during the pandemic. He met a crazy animal lady and followed her to Florida a few years later where he now works as a digital content producer for University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.
