We met the spring of our junior year at Virginia Tech. Our first encounter was at the upscale Blacksburg cocktail lounge, Top of the Stairs. Deniz, ever the social butterfly, took it upon himself to put his number in Brooke's phone so they could meet up that weekend at the Foxfield races in Charlottesville. The meeting was brief, but one Cinco de Mayo date party and several orders of Pokey Sticks later (RIP Gumby's), things were pretty serious. Fast forward almost ten years (plus multiple pandemic postponements) and it's time to make things official! We are both so lucky to have tight-knit groups of friends and family, and can't wait to bring everyone together to celebrate.
