Isabelle and Dylan ran in similar friend groups but finally crossed paths at the wedding of their two best friends in April of 2022. Isabelle a bridesmaid, and Dylan a groomsmen, they had plenty of time over the weekend to exchange jokes and flirty comments. After hitting it off, Isabelle went back to her home in Denver, CO, and Dylan returned to Richmond, VA. However, their story continued! Long text conversations eventually turned into long phone calls, and after a month, Dylan took a leap and decided to visit Colorado. It was solidified for them both after that visit...this was special. They officially struck up a long distance relationship, visiting each other every few months and spending hours on Facetime in between visits. The distance was hard, but never dulled the love they both felt. It was worth waiting for. After about a year and a half of long distance, Isabelle decided to move to Richmond to be closer to Dylan and her family. Dylan flew out to help her pack, and together they made the long drive east with Alfie (their dog) in the backseat. After Isabelle lived in Richmond with her sister for a few months, the couple decided to move in together. They found a cute house with a big backyard for Alfie, and officially became roommates! The physical proximity only increased their love for one another, and they both knew that this was for forever. It was December 22, 2024, and the couple was visiting Isabelle's family in sunny California. They decided to make a short trip that morning and visit Isabelle's favorite beach in CA. After walking out toward the Pacific Ocean, Dylan got down on one knee. He asked Isabelle to be his best friend forever, and she said yes without hesitation! Isabelle and Dylan are so excited to become husband and wife. They truly are best friends, and can't imagine a life without each other. Dylan and Alfie are Isabelle's home, and vice versa. We can't wait to have you join us on September 6th as we say "I do." Get ready to celebrate!
