We are getting married!!!

Lets start this love story with this… when both Ryan and Adrianna met each other, they were both at points in their lives where love was the last thing to ever expect to walk in.. but the saying is.. love always comes when you least expect it. This story goes back to 2020, when Adrianna had just moved out to Phoenix a few months prior from Michigan (thinking she was going to go back shortly after she went out to Phoenix.. not knowing her whole life was about to change) and she was living with a group of girls in Scottsdale. One of the girls invited Adrianna to go on a hike with some of her closest friends two weeks after she moved in. At the time, she had not made any close friends, so Adrianna thought this would be a great way to meet some new people. Ryan at the time was close friends with her roommate and was also invited on this hike. As the hike began, being a Michigan girl, Adrianna was not prepared to climb up the entire Camelback Mountain, so she decided to wait halfway for the group to go up and come down. The gentlemen Ryan is, he decided to stay with her, not really knowing who she was. As the rest of the group went up the mountain, Adrianna and Ryan had nothing but time to get to know each other and share each other stories. Adrianna and Ryan left the hike exchanging numbers and being adamant about starting only a friendship since both of them were not equip to being in a relationship at that time. From that moment on, Adrianna and Ryan did not go a day without talking. Ryan became Adrianna’s first real friend in Arizona and they began hanging out , listening to music in the car and going all around town. A few weeks went by when fate stepped in: Ryan and Adrianna were listening to Innerbloom by Rufus Du Sol and Ryan decided to grab Adrianna’s hand and have that moment with her. A couple weeks later Ryan kissed Adrianna for the first time. From that moment on, falling in love became inevitable. Ryan and Adrianna began their story strong and continued to bond over music, food, going on adventures, murder documentaries and a sense of well-being.

On September 22, 2022 Ryan surprised Adrianna with a proposal at the Scottsdale Botanical Gardens, one of Adrianna’s favorite places to go. It embodies magic and whimsical energy within in. Ryan involved all of Adrianna’s siblings in on it and she was surprised turning every corner with messages from Ryan that they were holding up.

Adrianna and Ryan always talked about having kids one day, but they never imagined it would have come sooner than they expected… however on December 1, 2022, they welcomed their first daughter, Harlow Rose, who since then, has taken over their world. She is the creation of what Adrianna and Ryan embody and the love they have for each other.

As many of you know, we chose to pause our wedding plans last June to focus on ourselves and our relationship. Looking back, we see this as one of the greatest blessings God has given us. Through this time, our love and faith in each other—and in Him—have only grown stronger. Now, with full hearts and unwavering commitment, we are ready to step into married life, embracing this next chapter with love, faith, and gratitude. We are so excited to embark on our next step in our journey.
