First Meeting

August 2018

David and Hannah first met at work, Chick-fil-A Fairfax Circle. The grand moment actually happened when David hit Hannah with the large stainless steel door... the best part is this grand moment actually happened twice! The night ended with Hannah getting her pants soaked in a puddle of mop water and David profusely apologizing a multitude of times first in-person then via Facebook Messenger. The rest is history!

The Actual Start

September 26, 2018

In the soon-to-be fashion of their relationship, David asked Hannah to officially start a relationship in the same place they met, Chick-fil-A! While the moment next to the raw chicken fridges and the pssing noise of the soda dispenser may not be considered the most romantic spot, the couple wouldn't change this unique moment for anything!

Long Distance Relationship

August 2019 - May 2022

In August of 2019, Hannah started college at Union University in Jackson, TN, and therefore starting the couple's long-distance relationship. For the next almost 3 years Hannah would spend roughly 8 of 12 months in Tennessee while David spent that time in Virginia. In May of 2022, Hannah will graduate from Union University with her BS in Business Administration in Management ending the long-distance! By the time of the wedding, the couple would have spent 23 months of their 46 months long relationship! They do say distance makes the heart grow fonder!

The Proposal

July 4, 2021

After a multitude of decoy dates, David proposed to Hannah on a patio of the Gaylord Hotel at the National Harbor overlooking the Potomac River. The proposal happened while the couple danced to music that was being played at a wedding reception on another part of the grounds. As to be expected, Hannah bawled her eyes out and David was grinning non-stop like the Cheshire cat!

The Big Day

July 17, 2022

With the hope of no more global pandemic to stop it, Hannah Marie Grothe and José David Rivera Reyes will get to commit their lives to each other in the witness of their friends, family, and God! As this day approaches, the excitement builds and the couple can not wait to start their marriage surrounded by those who mean the most to them!
