On a crisp November night in 2018, the glow of Cowboy Slims in Uptown beckoned two young, adventurous souls. Ryan caught a glimpse of Lia as she walked by and was instantly smitten. Soon after, Ryan made his move with his trusty flip phone. After a charming exchange, he managed to get Lia's number, and soon, love was exchanged one T-9 text at a time. Over the next few months, Lia and Ryan's bond grew stronger with each date, leading to Lia’s school fundraiser at Urban Growler where she felt nervous about introducing Ryan to her parents and friends since they weren't "officially dating." However, Ryan alleviated her concerns by asking her to be his girlfriend just days before the event, turning it into a celebration of their new beginning. Now, as they prepare for their wedding, they've chosen to return to Urban Growler, where their relationship took that pivotal step, creating a beautiful, full-circle moment for their union. Over the past six years, their relationship has grown through five moves, countless trips, and raising their dog, Grinch. They look forward to further deepening their connection, growing as individuals, expanding their family, and creating a home filled with love, laughter, and faith. Lia and Ryan are so grateful to have you by their side as they celebrate this milestone with the people who matter most.
