Chris and Mariah’s love story began long before they even knew it. For years, it was as if an invisible string tied them together, gently pulling them closer. They worked just two miles apart and frequented the same favorite lunch spots. Then, with a simple swipe right, that invisible string finally brought them together. . They had their first date at Fate Brewery and fate truly did take over. Conversation flowed effortlessly, and laughter echoed as they discovered a shared love for classics like School of Rock and Tommy Boy. On their second date, Mariah playfully challenged Chris to a game of pool, with a bet: whoever won would plan and pay for the next date. Chris, competitive and eager to impress, took a daring behind-the-back shot to sink the 8-ball and win the game. But in a twist, he scratched, leaving Mariah victorious. Little did they know, the “prize” wasn’t just another date—it was the beginning of a love story that would last a lifetime. Chris planned their third date in Old Town Scottsdale where they wandered hand in hand through an immersive Van Gogh exhibit, soaking in the beauty of art and each other’s company. Later, as they strolled through the streets of Old Town Scottsdale, their connection deepened with every shared moment. As the night came to a close, Mariah turned to Chris and whispered the words that would set the tone for the rest of their lives: “I don’t want this to end.” And it hasn’t. From that moment on, they’ve been building a life together, full of laughter, love, and unforgettable memories.
