How We Met

Both of us really admire music and it feels like fate that we first encountered one another dancing under the desert sun at Coachella Music and Arts Festival in California. Our chemistry was undeniable as we quickly fell in love. We spent three wonderful days together and through conversation we were delighted to find out we lived in the same city back home! Our love story continued back home where we spent a lot of time at the University of Washington on dates around the city. We spent a year in the city before Michael graduated, after we went on the hunt for a place to live together. We stumbled upon a place to stay in good ol' Fall City, Washington. Michael showed Lydia the city and university life in Seattle, and she returned the favor showing him what farm and horse life was all about. We bonded over our ties to the city and experienced wonderful memories over the years down by the river. We plan to continue to live in Fall City and stay as close to the valley as possible. Hopefully, after we are married, we can find a place to buy and make a home we are proud of, one where we can raise a family and host our friends for many years to come.
