2007 Denise and Jonathan met back in the summer of 2007 at Jonathan’s mom’s house in Atwater Village with mutual friends and Jonathan’s family, consisting of bbqs, video games, and the casual hang outs with everyone. 2008 Hanging out often, the two started to become really close and started to get to know one another. August 17, 2008 Jonathan posted a picture of a heart shaped cloud on MySpace on Denise’s MySpace page and that day Denise asked Jonathan about it. Jonathan asked her to become his gf and told her he loved her. After 8 years of growing together.. November 12, 2016 Denise and Jonathan were in a group text with Jonathan’s cousins, Grace Panganiban and Jackie Batas, talking about going to Grace’s husband’s birthday brunch at Marina del Rey on a boat. The day of Nov 12, they arrived on the boat, greeted with champagne in hand, walked up to the deck, Denise in front and Jonathan behind her. To Denise’s surprise she saw her immediate and extended family there with Jonathan’s family. She turned to Jonathan, with tears in her eyes, she knew what was going to happen. For years of their relationship, Denise would always talk to Jonathan about how she would loved to be proposed to, involving her family, their close friends, and his family. Surprisingly, Jonathan had that in his master plan, hehe! November 12, 2016 Denise and Jonathan finally got engaged! 2019 Fast forward to present.. Denise and Jonathan’s adventure continues with their family and friends, becoming Mr and Mrs Jonathan Batas on the day they got together, August 17, 2019! WE CAN’T WAIT TO SHARE OUR LOVE WITH YOU!
