How We Met

October 2008

We first met in English class Junior year of high school and became instant friends. We stayed friends throughout our next year and half of high school through the first semester of college. After car pooling together our first semester, our schedules didn't line up and we both went off to separate universities out of the area after starting at community college. We met back up after graduation in 2015 and picked up our friendship like no time had passed. Shortly after we were inseparable and there was no question to pursue each other.

The Proposal

December 13, 2019

We love going to wineries in the Loudoun County area and one of the best views is in Bluemont that overlooks all of Loudoun all the way to Tyson's. Every year Bluemont decorate their vines with lights during the winter time, so with one of our best friends sister being in town we decided it would be nice to trip on a Friday night after work to see the lights and drink some wine. As we were taking pictures in the vines, he popped the question, and I said "Yes"! We are so excited to celebrate our next chapter with you!
