Due to the recent activity in the DR, our Wedding has been relocated to the Cancun area

For anyone who doesn't know, Todd and Kassie met online thru Match.com on December 30, 2013. Todd messaged first, where he asked Kassie if she’d be interested in talking. To this request, she only said, “yes.” Upon his immediate reply, she knew he was "gonna be a good one" because Todd had shared that he went to the same high school and once lived in the same neighborhood as her. Todd lived only two streets away from Kassie, the whole time they were growing up! However, back then, their age difference kept them apart. Otherwise, it would have been because Kassie was always busy with something after school: gymnastics, dance, saxophone or singing lessons; while Todd managed his time by racing his oh-so-many muscle cars (3 Mustangs, 2 Thunderbirds, & most recently, 1 Challenger). Eventually, they would discover the real reason they never knew each other in the past. You see, fate would keep them apart and never allow their paths to cross until they were ready for each other. Years later, you might say they were a perfect match, considering, but even at the beginning when they managed to talk for 4 hours on their first and second dates! In the end, Todd designed a one-of-a-kind ring and proposed to Kassie on November 22, 2017. We are so excited to share this moment in our lives with our closest family and friends. We know we’re asking a lot from our guests and we thank you! Our hearts are full of gratitude and love, seeing that you’re willing to travel so far for our destination wedding. This trip will be the most unforgettable experience of our life, and we can’t wait for you to be a part of it.

When I was old enough to care, I asked all of the married couples in my family, "How do you know when you've found the one?" I always got the same monotonous answer, "When you know, you know." I grew to devalue that answer because it seemed incredibly simple and impossible. Truthfully, I never found anyone that made me feel this way either, until now. When I met Todd, we first reminisced about our time growing up in Austin. We laughed over old movies, high school shenanigans, and 90's hip-hop. We quickly discovered how many interests we had in common. For example, we’re both adventurous in our food endeavors. We both single-handedly sampled every specialty beer we could find at the start of the craft beer movement. Eventually, we couldn't spend enough time together. Once, Todd even asked me out to a lunch date, only to ask me out again for dinner that same day! Finally, it hit me, this overwhelming feeling of contentment and then calmness. I finally knew what my family couldn't put into words. I knew Todd was the one and I wanted to start the rest of my life with him, as soon as I could.
