"I would rather share one lifetime with you than face all the ages of this world alone."

Hannah had started taking brazilian jiu-jitsu in April of 2017. About a month later she left for a music festival in North Carolina. When she came back there was a new student just visiting for the Thursday evening take down class. Who knows how they ended up being partners for the class, but they were. So their first meeting was spent beating each other up. Although, Hannah admittedly had a hard time focusing on the lesson over trying to figure out whether he was faking his British accent. When class was over Jamie made a point to peacock around the locker room shirtless. Lucky for all of us, Hannah is unimpressed by peacockers, however she was intrigued by the conversation about music....and his blue eyes. We've talked to Jamie about his side of the story. He doesn't deny the peacocking, swears his accent is real, and admits that he thought Hannah was "hot". But pursued her for being intelligent, funny, and shared common interests. They were friends for months before dating, and that friendship has continued to be the foundation of their entire romantic relationship.

Both Hannah and Jamie have lived a life full of many travels and new homes. Throughout those, they have met some amazing people, amazing people that have had a significant impact on them. They've developed a wedding weekend with gratitude for "The life that lead me to you". If you haven't talked to Hannah or Jamie in awhile, just know that you received an invitation because you made a lasting impression on them. And they want to be surrounded by those amazing people and memories as they tie the knot.
