When Brandon watched Rachael step out of the "Big Green Girl" (her old Ford F150) for her first interview at Forrester Construction, who would've known that he would be watching her walk down the aisle to become his wife years later? ( FUN FACT: Rachael met Brandon's sister, Julie, in 2015 while working at Chevy Chase Country Club, having no idea that she would later become her sister-in-law! ) While Rachael worked at Forrester, her boss occasionally mentioned how smart and handsome Brandon was. Rachael eventually realized she was right and gave Brandon her number... three times! While she thought Brandon wasn't interested, Brandon claims he "thought she was just being friendly" since she is always making new friends. At a work happy hour, Brandon gave Rachael an extra pickle, watched her play tennis (quite poorly) on a court they'd recently constructed, and, finally, the two had their first kiss. They talked on the phone every day, and he even invited her to meet his parents at the bay the weekend after (luckily, Rachael is a true Marylander at heart and can't refuse a good crab feast!) Despite failing to keep their office romance a secret, Rachael and Brandon's love bloomed quickly. Through the good times and bad, despite everything life has thrown at them over the last few years, Rachael and Brandon have only grown stronger. They can't wait to spend the rest of their lives tackling the world together. Thank you to all who have played a part in our journey!
