A & M

On the beautiful sunny coast of Southwest Florida, our love story began unbeknownst to us when we met in middle school at the age of 11. What started as awkward preteen interactions quickly budded into an innocent but meaningful friendship that took us all the way through Middle School and into High School. But Junior Prom was when everything changed. Not long after that night of dancing and laughing, we found ourselves on our first date: an evening of mini golf, Chick-Fil-A, and ice cream where, despite Michael ordering Pistachio flavored ice cream, Angie decided to stick around. We quickly fell in love and began officially dating on August 25, 2017. The first year of our lives together taught us the pure joy of true love, and it became very clear that we were destined to be together. Not even the distance of college could keep Michael from his Prom Queen, as our relationship entered a new uncertain era. After four years of Facetime calls, virtual movie nights, and weekend train visits to Annapolis and Philadelphia, we finally moved into our first home together in Maryland in the summer of 2022. In a home built on an abundance of love, we could not wait to add a new family member: our sweet husky, Luna! With this mischievous new pup in the mix, the only thing missing from our home is the wedding bands. On our wedding day, bathed in the golden glow of forever, we exchange vows not just as partners, but as two hearts that have known the warmth of friendship and love for 13 years to nearly the exact day. This is not just the beginning, but the culmination of a true love story written in silliness, innocence, and a genuine connection that surprised us both. Our story is truly a story like no other, and one that we hope will forever bloom in the garden of your hearts as it does ours.
