A Love Written In the Stars. We're Getting Married!

We met like so many others in our generation, the internet. We were intent on not letting heartbreak, disappointment, and dead-end relationships stop us from being open to finding true love, so we persisted. We met on a dating app by swiping right and making a match. Tanasia took the first move by liking his page, and Mekiah responded by sending her a direct message. We have our Labradoodle Cartier to thank for this because Mekiah mentioned how adorable he was in the photos on her page. Smart man, because it worked! We had our first date a week later, and have been almost inseparable ever since. We had a three-part date that included a psychic reading. In the end, the Sun card was pulled when asked what the future had in store for us. In a love Tarot spread, if you are in a relationship, The Sun is an indication of great joy and happiness. The Sun in a tarot love reading also foretells a celebration such as an engagement or a wedding. We knew almost instantly that we were soulmates. For us, that reading confirmed that our love was written in the stars. Even during dark days, we know our love is the way to the light. And so it has been.

After roughly two months of dating, our relationship officially began on April 2nd, 2022. We both believe in dating with intent, and Mekiah officially asked Tanasia if she wanted to be in a committed relationship. Eleven months later, Mekiah took her back to the exact spot their relationship began. He got down on one knee with "Marry Me" spelled out with candles. She said yes, and we are now coming together to celebrate our union with our beloved friends and family.
