We’re getting married!

Carlos and Darlin were mutual friends with eachother on Social Media through friends, for many years! We’re talking about MySpace type of friendship, throughout middle school, highschool and into college. After years of Carlos and Darlins mutual friendship, Carlos finally started to slide into Darlin’s DMs. Ofcourseee at this point, Darlin didn’t budge, why would she? She has this guy who hasn’t made a move in years now randomly begins messaging her. She didn’t pay mind and several months pass of consist likes, comments and messages every now and then. Until he finally called her out and said “Why are you being La Dura? Just let me take you out on a date, at least coffee and get to know me” Even though that remark was quite funny, she still didn’t give in because even though she gave him her number, she said “I don’t want to sound like a b*** so here it is but this doesn’t mean anything..” and that my friends, was the start of everything. Little did they know, this was the beginning of forever.

Carlos and Darlin were far from traditional. For starters, social media was “technically” how they met! On August 16th, 2019 they closed on their first home, the now second most memorable day of their lives. Carlos thought this was the right moment, not before or after but now. With the help of Arlene, Darlin’s sister and Dino, their adopted brother (AKA brother in law), they planned a beautiful, intimate engagement right in the first steps of our home. The idea was perfect! Flowers, champagne, family and love quotes written all over the walls, since we would eventually paint the house; these quote would always stay in the foundation of their home. However, things didn’t go as planned which Carlos HATES! They became “friends” with the previous house owner and the gentlemen didn’t leave the property as early as he said he would so their family wasn’t there on time nor did he have time to write the quotes. He stalled the time by going to lunch and then taking her back to the house. She thought, they were going back home to you know, “break in the house” haha. When they arrived, Darlin was surprised with a warm welcoming from their family all waiting in the living room with champagne, flowers, balloons, the whole nine yards. At this point, she thought it was a celebration. A few moments later, Carlos gets on one knee and asks her to marry him! Ofcourse she said yes!
