It was the summer of 2018 in Dayton, Ohio when Avian and Desireé , in their late twenties, were first introduced by swiping right on Tinder – a dating app. Avian and Desireé had their first date at Thai 9, Desireé’s favorite restaurant, the weekend after Fourth of July Holiday. After unfolding, relating, and laughing a natural spark was realized between both. Avian and Desireé decided, wafting the kindle flames, to end their date at a nearby local brewery, Warped Wing. While enjoying a couple of beers Avian’s classmates from his school barged in and joined, unexpectedly. Avian, nervous, that things might go south was delighted by Desireé’s vibrant spirit and friendly character which only brought him to more adoration. Avian’s classmates described the two of them as comfortable as a long-lasting couple before it was revealed that it was only their first date. Avian and Desireé made plans that next morning for an early movie, from here their inseparable love journey began…

Fast forward two years later... Avian was placing Desireé in position, from the back of the boat, for a Fourth of July Holiday couple’s photo. While Desireé was finding her position under the sunset, rotated opposite from him, Avian dropped to one knee behind her. Desireé pivots back without noticing Avian and looks down. Avian takes in her shock, mouth wide open, with his handsome smile. Their eyes intertwined and danced during Avian’s proposal speech as Desireé clasped Avian’s hand anticipating the long-waited question, “Will you marry me?" The next day, our friends congratulated us, at our engagement brunch, with their gifts, deserts and love. It was a breathtaking and thrilling unpredictable moment shared on a boat in Indianapolis which would not have happened without our close loved one’s time and effort. We made a public proposal feel like an intimate park proposal from our dream, and a surprise celebration with friends remembered by pictures that captured our special events. We are excited to have you at our wedding!!
