We met at a concert in the arts district of D.C., on Delaware avenue in 2014. Our eyes met across the dance floor and we were inseparable the rest of the night. After we exchanged numbers on the Green Line, on our way to our separate sides of the cities suburbs, we both hoped our paths would cross again as we both entered the beginning stages of our adult lives. We next met in the Spring of 2015, when we were both making plans for our summers, and started down the path that lead us here, planning our wedding day. We began our relationship October of 2015, We decided to try to be together even though we were going to schools in different states. We lasted about 3 months before we refused to be in a long distance relationship, in January of 2016. By April of 2016, we had moved in together in Florida, where we began building our life together based on an undeniable love that grows and grows to this day. Shortly there after, we knew, we needed a change of scenery, and we moved to Richmond. A little closer to home, to create the memories we've had shared with loved ones over the last 8 years living here. This path has been populated with the most wonderful jumble of incredible people including our incredible families or the amazing friends who have provided us so much love, joy, and support. We would not be here in front of you today without every single one of you and some friends and family who sadly aren't. We are so thankful that everyone has been a part of this, and are so excited to celebrate with everyone at our long awaited nuptials. We have traveled thousands of miles sharing each others company, exploring some of the most beautiful places the United States has to offer, and occasionally getting into a little bit of trouble. Whether it was lost in the back woods of West Virginia, Galavanting on dance platforms in the desert of California, wandering the forests of Pennsylvania, or along the beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, Our love has been a defining characteristic of our trials and tribulations through the years, and we cannot wait to share that with all of you!
