We can't wait for you to share our special day with us!

It was the night before I was going to embark on a self discovery trip to Portland, OR by myself. I went out to a bar with my friends to say good bye before I would be gone for a week. As we sat on the patio I saw a guy walk in dressed up in a button down shirt and all I could think to myself was "great... another Fairfield County boy. I can't wait to get to Portland". The button down shirt guy walks out of the bar with two drinks in his hand and looks confused. As he attempts to place his drinks on the ground my bridesmaid Lauren tells this guy to place his drinks on our table while he waits for his friend to return. As a table opens behind me, the button down shirt guys comes to sit next to me with his two drinks and introduces himself. "Hi. I'm Darren". On the outside he was completely opposite of what I would declare my type. I asked myself what was this guy doing talking to a girl with tattoos and orange hair but once we got to talking, we bonded over yoga, entrepreneurship and of course, beer. My friends had left to go to their next destination but I choose to hang out with this new guy that I had just met. We left the bar and he held my hand as we walked down the street. At this point he was already planning on the next time we would see each other. He walked me to my car at the end of the night and kissed me good bye. In that moment, it was like my life flashed before my eyes and in that moment I knew... I just met my future husband.
