Let's take a trip down memory lane to Athens, OH. While we had a lot of mutual friends throughout the years at OU, somehow our paths never crossed...fast forward to 2014, our senior year, when that changed. Carly and her roommates lived across the street from a group of Mike's friends and one night decided to invite themselves over to hangout. To Carly's shock, Mike took it upon himself to greet her with a kiss. And well, you know what they say; the rest is history.

If there was one place on our travel bucket list as a couple, it was Amsterdam. After years of considering going and never following through, Carly decided to surprise Mike for his 29th birthday with a trip to said bucket list city. With an exciting trip on the horizon, Mike decided it was time to start looking for rings. Lucky for him, it arrived the day before we left ;) On day 2 of our trip, walking through Vondelpark, Carly was (finally) made the future Mrs. Costa.
