If you’ve found your way to this page, it means you’re one of the special people we couldn’t imagine celebrating without. Congratulations! You’re about to dive into the whirlwind tale of how Mina (that’s me!) from sunny Phoenix, Arizona, ended up snagging Sarah, the radiant queen of Montreal. Buckle up, folks—it’s a ride filled with laughter, love, and just the right amount of chaos. The Chance Encounter Our story begins in the most unexpected way: by pure chance, though it was God’s plan all along—we just didn’t know it yet. Neither of us was looking for anything extraordinary, and yet, we found each other—a reminder that life often has the best surprises in store when you least expect them. From the very start, Sarah and I were inseparable. The First Date Our first date? Oh, that’s one for the books. The plan was simple: a classy lunch at a fancy restaurant. What actually happened? A detour to Starbucks, a quick bite at McDonald’s, and an impromptu visit to the Bible Museum. Romantic? Maybe not in the traditional sense, but it was the kind of fun chaos that perfectly defined “us.” The Waiting Game Now, here’s where Sarah deserves a medal for patience. She waited for me to say those three magical words: “I love you.” And waited. And waited some more. Finally, during a romantic dinner in Montreal, I dropped the L-bomb. Her reaction? The cutest mix of shock and shyness, which I (of course) captured on video. And no, Sarah, you’re still not getting to see that video—at least not until our wedding day! The Almost-Proposal Fast forward to our Arizona adventure. I had the perfect romantic spot in mind to propose. The only problem? The ring I ordered didn’t arrive on time. Picture Sarah expecting a heartfelt proposal and me just… not doing it. Let’s just say her confusion was priceless. But don’t worry—I made it up to her by popping the question in her beloved Montreal. Our Adventures Together During our time together, we’ve done it all: movie marathons, debating over the most trivial nonsense, strolling by lakes, walking through snow, attending the circus, and even attempting to cook together. (For the record, Sarah claims she’s the better cook, but let’s just say my taste buds beg to differ.) And let’s not forget our epic game nights. Every time we play, Sarah pretends she doesn’t know how the game works. She’ll lose a round or two, and just when I’m basking in my victory… BAM! She turns into a champion and beats me every single time. (I’m onto you, Sarah!) The Big Day Now, here we are, getting ready for the biggest adventure of all: saying “I do” in front of all the people we love. Thank you for being part of our journey. We can’t wait to celebrate with you and make more unforgettable memories. With love and laughter, Mina & Sarah
