How We Met

St. Patricks Day - Wrigleyville 2015

Who said you can't find love at a bar? We certainly were not expecting to find our soulmates within the chaos of that day, but once we locked eyes all else faded away and it felt like it was just us two out on the dance floor. It all felt so familiar and exciting at the same time, we both knew there would be something more. We were right!

She said Yes!

I told Crystal I wanted to take her to have a nice romantic dinner, and she happily obliged not knowing what I had in store for the night. Nerves were running high as we ate dinner, knowing our closest friends and family were outside the restaurant waiting for us to finish and appear outside along the riverfront. We began taking selfies and a photographer friend we "ran into" started taking our pictures. Suddenly Crystal's eyes got wide as I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me. She cried out, "of course!" as everyone ran out to congratulate us. We hope to have as much love and excitement during our wedding day as we did that night, and cannot wait to celebrate with you all!

For all the days along the way
