Charlie and Lyndsay’s mutual friends Shelby and Matt Comeaux planned a Fourth of July weekend trip to Shelby’s family lake house at Lake Texoma. The Comeaux’s devised a plan to bring along a group of their single friends. That weekend led to Charlie and Lyndsay’s two and a half year courtship.
Charlie and Lyndsay planned to spend Christmas morning together opening presents before going to visit their families. Lyndsay’s last gift was an enormous Anthropologie box. She was convinced it was a set of dishes. Her heart began pounding as she pulled a bottle of champagne from the box and turned to find Charlie down on one knee holding a ring. She fell to the ground in tears and said “yes” as their dog Louie squeezed between them to join in the excitement. The couple spent the rest of the day surprising family and friends with their exciting engagement news.
Lyndsay attended the University of Oklahoma where she received her degree in communication sciences and disorders, followed by a masters in communication sciences from the University of Texas at Dallas. She is now a speech language pathologist. Charlie studied strategic communication at the University of Kansas before going on to work as an account executive for Real Media Group. The couple will say “I do” with a ceremony and reception on October 19 at The Crescent Hotel.
