No one would have expected that a budding friendship at the ripe old age of 16 would become the beginning of a love story. After several years of dating from high school into college, Sarah and Michael decided that they needed to create experiences and adventures on their own. To this day they truly believe this to be one of the best decisions and credit their strong bond to these years apart. After graduating college and finding their own ways in the real world, they entertained a long distance relationship for a few years. Ultimately, they knew in their hearts that they were meant to be together. Michael flew back to State College to scoop up Sarah and move her to Arizona with him. Shortly after, they relocated to Seattle where after three years of living together, Michael popped the question on Sarah’s 29th birthday to create their happily ever after.
