It all started thanks to a little friendly persuasion. After a date with one of Ryan’s friend’s brothers, my friend Roxie somehow convinced me to give Ryan a chance. I wasn’t exactly excited about it, but I finally agreed to go. And thank goodness I did. From the moment we started talking, something just clicked. Ryan’s personality completely won me over, and before I knew it, I didn’t want to leave. (Truth be told, I pretty much never did!) What started as a date I didn’t even want to go on turned into the love of my life. Since then, life has been full of laughter, love, and a little bit of chaos — especially with three amazing girls keeping us on our toes. Somewhere between the sleepless nights, family adventures, and all the small moments that make up our story, we realized we couldn’t do it without each other. Now, we’re finally making it official — tying the knot surrounded by the people who’ve been cheering us on since the beginning.
