We met during Donna's cotillion rehearsal. Donna, who is Michael's cousin, is also one of Eunice's best friends. We were only 17 years old at that time-- young , wild, and free! Throughout our college years, we would bump into each other at a few parties but had always left the attraction there. In August 2017, we reconnected in Las Vegas through our mutual friends, Jay and Melissa. Eunice thought whatever happened in Vegas would stay there as it had been the common theme between us in the past. But to our surprise, this was the beginning of our love story!

When Michael asked if he could plan one day out of our trip to Hawaii, Eunice knew he had something up his sleeve. That one day came, and Michael intended to propose three times to see which location captured the best picture, lol. We took two proposal photos--one after our hike on Koko Head and the second was a post helicopter ride. The third picture was never taken because Waikiki no longer had caricature drawings; Michael would have wanted the artist to draw him kneeling down with a ring in his hand. Nonetheless, the trip was one for the books. We cannot wait to celebrate with you on our special day!
