Ariel and Michael met more than 15 years ago when they were both working at Staples. It all started with Ariel bossing Michael around and telling him what to do, somethings just dont change. That started years of friendship that lasted through college, graduate school, joining the Army and a lot of other things in between. After years of friendship and years of dating, Michael finally got Ariel to say yes. Dont tell Michael, but it might have been the smartest thing she has ever done. After making him wait years for the yes, Ariel only made him wait 11 months for the "I do". On September 29, 2022 at Crescent Beach, WA they were married with only their parents as witnesses. Big weddings, ceremony and spotlight aren't really their thing. They do love to have a good time though and are finally ready to celebrate tying the knot with their friends and family. No formality or ceremony, just hanging out with good food, good drink and most importantly good company.
