Thomas and Elena met at a small company in Nashville, TN called V. Alexander, in the Fall of 2015 amongst a sea of cubicles. Elena had already been with the company for 2 years and Thomas was a mysterious, tall, handsome newcomer that caught her eye. To Thomas, Elena was the pretty, outgoing red-head with the charming personality. They hit it off pretty quickly, and soon started going on dates. They tried to keep their romance a secret for months, but their coworkers couldn’t help but notice the chemistry between them. It wasn’t long before they began to catch on. Once the time was right, they finally told the rest of the office. Everyone knew they were a perfect match. The rest is history. About a year into their romance, they took their first trip to The Big Apple, New York City. On the trip they climbed The Statue of Liberty and saw Wicked on Broadway, but Elena truly fell in love with Times Square (and Thomas was taking notes). Over the last three years, they have both attained new jobs, gone to numerous Preds and Vols games, lake trips, beach trips, family holidays, and countless other adventures. The love between Thomas and Elena has continued to grow through the ups and downs that life has thrown at them. Fast forward to December 2018: the momentous trip back to NYC. Little did she know that Thomas was planning much more than a normal trip. Elena figured this was the perfect trip for a proposal, but tried not to get her hopes up and convinced herself Thomas wouldn’t pop the question. On the first night of the trip and after a series of mishaps and forgotten tickets, an increasingly nervous Thomas was able to get a totally unsuspecting Elena back to the very same spot they visited two years before. Dropping down on one knee for all of Times Square to witness, Thomas popped the question and she said, “YES!”. They are so excited to begin their lives together with each and every one of you! August 10th can’t come soon enough!
