How We Met

Year 2018

It was the end of winter in Washington. We met at Alpha Company, JBLM, WA. Mike and I are in the same company during this time. And it was during our move to a new company location. Yes, the rumor is true your girl, Meriville had an instant crush on your boy, Michael here. It was like high school all over again. You know that feeling when your crush walks by and suddenly you felt butterflies in your stomach. Yes, again -- that's me. I approached him and asked if he drives a truck so we can use it for the move. (Btw, we were not supposed to do that) And Michael lends his truck, and we all get drove to our new location with our fellow colleague Diaz (He actually have a good participation in our story) During our route, he played a cover of Adele's songs. And that's how our story began.

The Proposal

May 4, 2024

It is not your typical romcom theme or fireworks planning proposal. But it was the most romantic and Doc's way of expressing his emotions.

The Wedding...

We do!

The day was Thursday, December 5, 2024, at Belle's family Las Cruces home. Earlier that day, the weather forecasted to have some rain showers and strong wind gust. But mother nature was on our side, and it was like a curtain that moved the clouds in beautiful formation and boost a ray of sunshine. This is our day that filled our heart with joy, smiles and pure love. It was what we have all imagined. We have blissfully celebrated our wedding ceremony and exchanged our vows with our family on our side. It was short and sweet.
