I am here to admit you can find love on an app. In December 2020 I, Mackenzie, had downloaded Bumble just the day before finding Ian’s profile. He had been swiping for a little while without going on any dates (his choice...allegedly). We obviously matched and I genuinely remember feeling giddy. I still feel it when I see that photo. After a week of messaging non-stop, Ian picked me up (thankfully not a murderer) and took me to a nice restaurant. Afterward, he made us margaritas and we watched an Iowa basketball game. Dates 2 through 7 then took place during the same week because we simply couldn’t resist each others company. The dating app was quickly deleted and within a few short months we realized we would be marrying our one and only Bumble dates. We have a hard time describing the confidence we had in ourselves after our first date. From Columbus, to Charlotte and soon to be, Chattanooga, we have continued to build on what we felt that first night with an increasing amount of love and so much laughter. We think the world of each other and consider ourselves very lucky for finding genuine, true love. We are so excited to celebrate our lifelong commitment to each other, surrounded by you all. So thanks for being here and if you're here, you are so important to us! We hope you can join us!
