Our story starts off on more of a Rom-Com type setting. Strangers become co-workers, co-workers become friends, friends become..... Well, you get it. Given the fact that we were technically not supposed to be dating, actually made for an interesting start. This adventure starts sometime in 2009 on the corner of Second Street and Lavaca in downtown Austin as Brian had been moonlighting as a bartender. The details have always been a bit foggy but the first kiss that happened on that night will never fade. We are sure most of you know the story and if you don't... Brian will love to tell you! What went on from there was a bit of fun and playfullness and we both realized that something bigger than us had brought us together for a reason. At this point in our lives, we were both in need of someone to be the change in our lives... Both for different reasons. Fast forward through the next 5 years as we worked on building the beginning foundation for this relationship and undeniable love for each other. This will bring us to the proposal. New York, December, 30th 2014.... Location was set, Photographer was set, Brian was.... Sick. None the less, she said "YES" and that trip went on to be one of the most magical and unforgettable trips of our lives. Brian still has confetti saved from the New York ball drop in time square! Over the next 4 years, we have tortured ourselves with the What, When, Where of this wedding... But never the Who or Why. Given our mutual obsession with travel and the freedom it encourages, we wanted to give our most favorite people on earth, to have a reason to come to one of the most beautiful places on earth. We hope that all of you enjoy your time in Italy and are excited and humbled to have all of you join us. Each and every one of you play a huge part in our lives and have shaped who we are separately and together. This party is just as much for you as it is for us... We love all of you!
