How we met

September 2022

We met at our place of work, Veterinary Emergency Group in Boulder, CO. Although we met when our hospital first opened, we did not spend much time together on shift. We worked opposite sides of the week and eventually had a shift or two together randomly. After a few incredibly inappropriate jokes on the treatment floor and seeing how hard she works and how deeply she cares, I knew I was doomed to fall head over heels in love. Bonding over toxic exes, rock climbing, and sushi (even though I took her out for Pizza... which she hates, on our first date), our relationship took off. We dropped the L word right after an incredibly difficult case at work and never looked back. The verdict is still out over who can triage faster, however the verdict is in that we definitely love each other. We are truly 2 peas in a pod, best friends, and each others other halves. We survived long vacations to Hawaii, The Netherlands, and board games so we know we can handle anything that comes our way! We are beyond excited to share our amazing day with all of you and can't wait to see you at our wedding!
