It was a typical Wednesday night for Nicole's crew of middle school teachers... meaning a night out at the local dive bar for Karaoke. Although Nicole was too shy to belt out a tune herself, she did take notice of one of her coworker's friends. Mike's confidence (or overconfidence) with the microphone entertained her enough to start filming his performance. After returning to the group Mike spoke his first words to Nicole: "How's your sangria?" to which she replied "Good." These would be their only words exchanged that night. True romance! But they left an impression in each others' minds, and weeks later they were on their first date. Only a few minutes into the evening they both realized that they had met someone truly special who would change their life forever. Two years later Mike hatched a plan to surprise Nicole with an important question. On their 4th of July vacation he took her to the beach in the early morning to watch the sun rise. He laid out a blanket, poured wine, and put on one of their favorite songs... she didn't suspect what would come next. He got down on one knee and asked if she would be his best friend and partner for life! After a moment of shock, she said yes!!! Our story is well underway, but our marriage represents the beginning of our family. It will be our greatest honor and privilege to share it with you.
