We met January 20, 2018 at the Community Foundation of Northwest Mississippi 18th Annual black tie Crystal Ball event. We met online about a week before and decided to meet in person at the Ball. The theme was Once Upon a Time...Happily Ever After and it was the perfect foreshadowing of our fairytale to come. As soon as we entered the doors, characters pretending to steal the queen sprung into action and Daniel did not hesitate to play along, rescuing Constance from their grasp. Who doesn’t like a handsome knight in a nice suit coming to their rescue! It was a fun night and since then we’ve been inseparable.
After visiting Orlando and being immersed in all things Disney, Daniel was definitely feeling the Disney Magic. In May of 2019, while home having dinner Daniel popped the question. Constance responded jokingly, “you’re gonna need something shiny for this” so Daniel picked up the shiny new rose gold ears he’d gotten her on the trip and says, “Will you be the Minnie to my Mickey?” YES!
