Meagan and Jake first crossed paths in March 2017 at a powerlifting meet at her gym. Not a word was spoken to each other, but they noticed one another. They crossed paths a 2nd time when Jake happened to show up at another powerlifting meet to cheer on his friend, in the early summer of 2017. Shortly after that and in typical 21st century fashion, Meagan ran across Jake's profile on a dating app. Now knowing he was single, Meagan found Jake on Facebook and sent him a message on August 10th 2017. On August 12th 2017 Meagan and Jake went on their first date, indoor rock climbing, followed by dinner, a dip in the pool and hours of conversation. That night started it all and the rest is history. Since that first date Jake and Meagan have spent a lot of time traveling and exploring everywhere from local spots, like a weekend in Borrego Springs and a 30 hour train ride from Seattle back to LA, to international trips to Canada and Mexico, with many places in between. But none of those trips compare to the weekend spent camping on Catalina Island. Even though it rained and stormed and they spent most of their time in the tent, the weather cleared up just enough, on the evening of October 12th. Exactly 14 months after their first date, for Jake to take Meagan down to the beach, where he got down on one knee and asked her to be his wife. It's taken nearly a year worth of planning but the future Mr. and Mrs. Eknoian can't wait to share their special day with all of you.
