We met in 2022, not knowing that our lives were about to change in the most beautiful way. From the very beginning, something just clicked. Our first date was on October 9th, a perfect day for a hike at Eagle Creek Park. Ryan spent the entire date trying to make me laugh and I almost stepped on a snake. Since that day, we've created the best memories together. We've laughed until we cried, supported each other through ups and downs, and built a life filled with joy, love, and adventure. Over the years, we’ve met each other's families and friends and each introduction bringing more warmth, acceptance, and love into our lives. It’s been a beautiful blessing to see how both of our worlds embraced us fully, making it feel like we were always meant to be one big family. We took the leap and moved in together, building a home that reflects who we are—full of warmth, laughter, and a ridiculous amount of movie nights. We've traveled to new places, tasted all kinds of fun and delicious foods, and created countless little traditions along the way. And recently, we reached an exciting milestone: we bought our first home together. A space that’s truly ours, to laugh and share. Now, as we look ahead, we’re filled with anticipation and joy—we can’t wait to officially become each other’s half. Celebrating this next chapter surrounded by the people we love most is something we’ve dreamed about, and we’re so grateful to have such an incredible circle of family and friends standing beside us.
