Decided to propose with a message inside the cup.
After finding ourselves in the dating pool after a long broken marriage, neither of us were ready to give up on the idea of sharing our lives with someone special, but we both wanted to meet someone as a friend. We wanted to find someone we could spend time with and get to know without the pressure of rules and expectations. We were matched on Eharmony and quickly learned our love for coffee, chocolate, and our Christian faith was why. After a few weeks of talking over the phone, video chats, and lots of texts we decided to meet. It wasn’t love at first sight but we both saw something in the other that kept our interest. Over the next few months we developed a strong friendship that quickly grew Into the love we were both hoping for. Distance and circumstances proved to be a challenge that we found a way to overcome. It wasn’t long before we knew we had found the one! Our love has grown over the last year and a half into one we only thought was for love songs and hallmark movies. We realized that the key to a love like this is the friendship we spent so much time creating. We are so excited to become husband and wife and continue this life as a team, a couple that comes together and navigates life with their best friend! Here’s to the beginning of our forever!
