We met after both being mutual fans of the USWNT (United States women's national soccer team). After chatting online, we discovered we were both going to be going to the 2015 women's world cup in Vancouver Canada. Sam asked me if I wanted to meet at the game… which then led to dinner at a charming little hole in the wall in downtown Vancouver (very smooth move Sam). Fast forward through the challenges of a long distance relationship while I was in grad school in Vermont, a five year stint living in Seattle, and then in 2022 we moved back to Sam’s home state of Georgia which takes us to… Celebrating our wedding with all of you! We cannot wait.
