We're so excited to celebrate with you!

As crazy as it may sound, we met on Twitter in 2013! We both went to nearby high schools and knew a lot of the same people, so our paths likely crossed before we finally decided to officially start dating. After texting each other non-stop for a couple weeks, we finally decided to meet in person. Our first 'date' was at Mellow Mushroom in Charleston (Michael didn't know this was a date and he showed up in basketball shorts and a workout tank). In true Michael fashion, he walked right past the restaurant with a huge neon sign that read 'Mellow Mushroom.' After finally realizing where he should be going, Michael met me inside and we had dinner. We ordered pepperoni & bacon calzones-- not sure what was better, the conversation or the food! Neither of us ate all of our food, so we asked for to-go boxes. We both somehow couldn't figure out how to use their to-go boxes and ended up putting our food in upside down. After our first date Michael texted me asking when he was going to see me again....and the rest is really history. Over these past 7 and a half years we've laughed, cried, grown up, traveled, adopted dogs, moved to a new city, and just experienced life with each other by our sides. We have always shared the belief that everything happens for a reason and we whole-heartedly believe the love we share is a testament of that. On December 12, 2020 Michael finally popped the question and we got engaged at a private rooftop on the top of the Grand Bohemian Hotel in Charlotte, NC. Surrounding by our closest family, I said yes through a puddle of happy tears and we celebrated throughout the night. We are so excited to celebrate our love with you on March 26, 2022! #ReadyToBePreddy With love, Bri & Michael
