We met when we were 19 through my brother, and became close friends after that. He kissed me at midnight on New Year's Eve in 2011 and started dating shortly after that. We survived the struggle of nursing school and pushed each other to become the best versions of ourselves. On October 6, 2015, he proposed for the first time. We were still in school and planning a wedding had to wait. On August 26th, 2018, he proposed again, surrounded by friends who are more like family. I feel so lucky to marry my best friend, and we are so blessed to have you all join us for our wedding.
