When Austin and I first met we were on very different paths. Crazy to say that the man I'm marrying was someone I considered a friend of a friend. When I first met Alexis I was visiting a friend of mine at work and didn't think much of the interaction. We found ourselves at the same outings, we had some of the same friends, and after having met a few times we realized we had the same interests. We started hanging out without our friends and grew to learn that we could be ourselves with each other. It was natural. After a few months of getting to know each other i knew she was the one. She didn't judge me or try to change me, she treated me the way i deserved to be treated, special. Austin treated me special as well. He made me feel safe, like I was at home. He pushed me to grow and do what I love. When I felt like my life was losing control he was there to reassure me that I would be okay. We can't see a life without each other and we hope you all come to celebrate this union, our joining of families and different family traditions. Our celebration of love.
