How We Met

10/16/2017

Our love story began on the serendipitous platform of Coffee Meets Bagel. Little did we know that our connection would be immediate, igniting a spark that would light our path together from the very day we matched. On that fateful day, Judy unexpectedly encountered Dontel at the hospital. It was then that he seized the opportunity to ask her out on the app, just as his shift came to a close. Destiny seemed to smile upon us as we discovered that we not only lived near each other but also found ourselves attending the same gathering that very week. It was there that we both realized, amidst the laughter and camaraderie, that we were meant for each other. Like coffee and bagels, we complemented each other perfectly. Six years and two beautiful children later, our bond remains unbreakable. From that initial connection to this moment, we've been inseparable, cherishing every moment together.

The Proposal

7.15.2023

Amidst the joy and laughter of Kayson's baby shower, Dontel had a heartwarming surprise in store for Judy. With the support and enthusiasm of their closest family and friends, he orchestrated a moment that would forever change their lives. As Judy was blindfolded, Dontel discreetly coordinated with their loved ones, prompting everyone to prepare their phones to capture the unforgettable moment. With hushed anticipation, he gently guided Judy to remove her blindfold, revealing a scene that took her breath away. There, in the midst of their loved ones, Dontel knelt before her, his eyes filled with love and devotion. With trembling hands and a heart full of emotion, he finally uttered those cherished words, asking for her hand in marriage. Tears of joy flowed freely as Judy, overcome with happiness, eagerly accepted his proposal. In that magical moment, surrounded by the warmth of their family and friends, their love story reached a new pinnacle of bliss. We cannot wait to embark on this incredible journey with all of you by our side. Join us as we celebrate our love and commitment in the vibrant city of Las Vegas!
