How We Met

From Venipunctures to Vows: Our Journey from Careers to Commitment!

Our love story starts at the local Blood Bank. Although we worked at the same company our teams never crossed paths until an “all hands-on deck” event occurred at Comic-Con. Amidst the vibrant chaos of costumes and collectibles, Megan spotted Nick across the crowded convention hall. Destiny seemed to intervene when they ended up in the same group at that work event. As they chatted, Megan's playful teasing and lively conversation sparked an undeniable connection between them. Their mutual interests and shared laughter made it clear that something special was unfolding. Megan, not one to let an opportunity slip away, took the opportunity to ask Nick when he was taking her on a date. The forwardness left Nick intrigued. During their first date, the conversation flowed effortlessly, and by the end of it, Megan had a gut feeling. Filled with excitement, she picked up her phone and called her mom. With a smile in her voice, she declared, "Mom, I’ve met the one. I think I’ve just met my future husband." Nick was equally captivated by Megan’s personality and openness leaving Nick wanting more… Just three weeks in, during a trip to Megan’s favorite small town of Julian, he officially asked her to be his girlfriend. The rest? Well… it’s kind of a great love story, and it’s just getting started.
