We originally met through mutual friends. It's a pretty typical beginning, starting with our first date at a coffee shop. A few weeks later Covid-19 was in full swing. After a couple of rounds of mandatory quarantines from our employers, we got to know pretty much everything about each other. For most relationships, this may have been a struggle, for us it allowed us to grow closer. We got engaged on South Padre Island in June of 2021 and are excited to be married in October of 2022.
