HOW WE MET

both sides of the story

Leah's version: We've known about each other since high school, but neither of us pursued anything. Until I messaged him on Facebook November of 2014. He likes to describe it as me 'sliding into his DMs.' I like to think of it as the beginning of the best adventure. Although through the majority of our relationship we haven't lived in the same state, we've always made it work. And by that I mean, endless texting and FaceTime. I can't wait to FINALLY share not only the same zip code but the same last name! Luke's version: Leah and I have known each other since high school through mutual friends. One day when I was stationed in North Carolina she liked a few of my Facebook photos, and sent me a message (slid into my DM's). After talking for quite a while I asked for her phone number. We talked just about every day until I came home on leave and we were able to hang out. And the rest is history..

THE PROPOSAL
