Our Love Story

Ameera and Ryan first met at the San Diego Convention in 2012. Ryan immediately caught Ameera's eye, even though he was a little younger than her. Ameera used that to her advantage and flirted with Ryan by buying him drinks at the bar. At the end of the weekend, Ryan added his number in Ameera's phone with 'your favorite' at the end of his name. A couple years had passed but Ameera surely did not forget about Ryan. As the 2014 Dallas Thanksgiving Convention was approaching, Ameera messaged Ryan and convinced him to go with his cousins. Coincidentally (maybe?), their rooms were right next to each other so they spent a lot of time together. That following Spring, Ameera and her best friend, Yasmin, took a trip out to the Bay Area to hang out with the Nor Cal crew. Yes, you guessed it. Ryan was (obviously) part of that crew. Summer rolls around and another Convention brings Ryan and Ameera closer together. At this point, the friendship was strong and a foundation had been built. Feelings were starting to form! Shortly after that trip, they were committed to visiting each other frequently, Facetiming whenever the time difference didn't interfere, and most importantly, they were committed to each other. Ryan showed his commitment by transferring his role to the DC/Baltimore office, completely eliminating the 3 hour time difference and 2,000+ miles in between them! This brought them even closer together, literally. Over the next couple of years, they saw their favorite artists perform, witnessed great sporting events, visited family and friends, and fell in love ❤ On September 12th, 2020, Ryan proposed to Ameera at a Baltimore rooftop restaurant, as the sun was setting. It was the easiest question and the most perfect evening... & the rest is history.
