It all started at a little bar on Richmond Street. We officially got to know each other working side by side at Richmond Bar & Grill. While our friendship grew, so did our feelings for one another. It wasn't long before you could spot us grabbing a beer before our shift at Slice & Pint, or grabbing dinners on our off nights. We quickly fell for one another, and have never looked back.

sur·prise: /sə(r)ˈprīz/:noun: an unexpected or astonishing event, fact, or thing. verb: (of something unexpected) cause (someone) to feel mild astonishment or shock. A surprise in its purest form was to witness Casey propose to Sydney in Carlsbad, California. Carlsbad had always held a special place in our relationship. We had traveled numerous times to visit Carlsbad as a couple for "staycations" in the past. The walkable streets, the diverse food scene, and the fun nightlife always meant a good time for us. However, the weekend Casey proposed tops them all.
