We’re tying the knot!

“I saw a glowing light around her” “He had such a sweet charm to him” They were introduced during a counselor morning meeting at the beginning of the Kid’s camp. While they flirted throughout the camp, Emmanuel kept thinking ‘she may be too old for me’ and Daneya just thought ‘He’s a little older but I hope he asks for my number’. Turns out they are only three days apart. Luckily on the last day of the camp, Emmanuel worked up the courage to ask for her number and Daneya was definitely relieved. The summer went on and the connection continued to build. Early fall, Daneya was not sure if she was ready for a relationship and so tried to break things off via text. Emmanuel knew that she was special and so he wanted to continue being friends. He immediately picked up the phone and called her. Daneya stared at the phone wondering expecting a fight if she picked up. When she answered Emmanuel calmly explained that he would still like to be friends and that she can have all the time that she needs. Daneya knew right then that he was something special. Minutes, hours, days and months went by before they realized that it was LOVE. Year after year they shared many experiences, continued to grow and love deeper and deeper. After making their biggest decision together, Daneya and Emmanuel journeyed across country to start their life together. Later that year, Emmanuel decided to get down on one knee during thanksgiving dinner to ask for her hand in marriage and the rest was history. “We are not saying that we are perfect but we are perfect for each other” - Daneya and Emmanuel.
