How We Met

April 1st, 2017

Josh and I first crossed paths at Burger King, but we had already heard bits and pieces about each other through mutual friends before that. Our first real face-to-face meeting happened when he started working there, and from that moment on, we hit it off. We became instant best friends, eagerly looking forward to our shifts together. Soon, we were chatting outside of work too, and before we knew it, feelings started to develop. After a while of waiting for him to make the first move, I decided to take matters into my own hands and ask him out. He was a little surprised, but, of course, he said "absolutely!" Our first date was at McDonald's, where we laughed until our stomachs hurt and spent hours just enjoying each other's company. The best decision I ever made was asking him, "So, what are we doing?" And when he finally asked me to be his girlfriend, I could've jumped for joy—it was the easiest "yes" I've ever given, right after the moment he asked me to marry him! We are so excited to share this special day with you!
