Her Side: We met on a perfect night in Jacksonville, Florida. Brandon was stationed in Kingsbay, Georgia, while I was finishing up my bachelors degree in Jacksonville, Florida. As fate would have it, we met at one of our favorite bars, Surfer, and never looked back. We spent one month dating and living only 45 minutes from each other. After that month, Brandon got stationed in Jacksonville, North Carolina and its been long distance ever since. Our relationship has survived two years of long distance, a 7 month deployment, and many, many hours of FaceTime. We can't wait to put long distance in the past and begin our lives as husband and wife! His side: We met at the Jax Beach bars when I was stationed in Kings Bay and the only thing on my mind at the time was leaving for the West Coast. I had requested to switch my orders with a friend so I could go to California instead of Camp Lejune, North Carolina, but I thank God it never happened. One night in Jacksonville our paths crossed and after two years of what has felt like living worlds apart, we are finally getting married!
