we can't wait to celebrate with you!

Olivia's story- Marcus and I matched on a dating app (bumble) we chatted a bit but the conversation never left the app. A few months later we matched again, on another dating app (Hinge) I sparked up the conversation (again) and we had the normal "how old are you, where are you from" dating app questions. I asked "what do you do for work" Marucs told me he was a postman. I immediately knew we had matched before, I asked "have we matched before?" Marcus answered "Yes, we did on a different sight, I wanted to see if you remembered." I then said " I thought so, there aren't many postmen out there that look as good as you" Marcus laughed at that (phew) this time our conversation left the app, which led to texting then a few face time chats and phone calls. Finally, Marcus asked me on our first date. We got Starbucks and went for a walk on the water, we walked, talked and laughed and that turned into lunch, which soon turned into dinner...I don't know if our first date ever ended.... we might still be on it!

Marcus’s story- Olivia and I met on a dating site. We messaged back and forth and when the conversation got midway, Olivia vanished (ghosted) and disappeared into thin air. I was upset but decided to keep my head up and keep pushing. Some months passed and I got onto another site. Olivia and I matched again. After conversing for some time, she said “Wait, did we match already?” And said “well actually , yes we did.” As you can see, she didn’t ghost me this time.

Marcus often times takes me on lovely dates. He’ll tell me to get dressed, and surprises me with, dinner, music, dancing or all of the above! Marcus also LOVES trying new restaurants. So when Marcus told me we were going to a nice dinner it wasn’t a tip off. I just figured we were going out to enjoy a new place, a nice meal and celebrate being parents. However when we arrived Marcus kept telling me to read the wine menu, over and over again…eventually I was like “ok geez!!” And as I lifted my head from the menu- there was marcus my handsome man on one knee with my mothers engagement ring in his hand. He gave a lovely speech (of which I cant remember because pure joy and excitement took over) I said yes and cried. When Marcus sat down he told me to read the notes in the box. The box had a few tiny notes folded in it. Two pieces being my parents hand written vows, one being a note from my mother! The whole night was so special and I’ve been on that high ever since!
