We're so excited to celebrate with you!

One night at Pronto in downtown Royal Oak, a young Ryan Redoute was out with friends for a night on the town. To his surprise, the most beautiful man walked by him that night. The man had gorgeous dark brown eyes, caramel skin, perfectly faded hair, and a charming smile. Ryan was in awe and continued to see the man around the bar all night. The two did not meet though. A couple of weeks later, Ryan was perusing his favorite dating app Grindr, swiping through the many men he was used to seeing on the app, and low and behold the beautiful man from Pronto appeared like a brilliant diamond! Knowing that the man’s profile on the app might only be available for messaging temporarily, Ryan quickly took his chance to reach out and say hi. He found out that this man was Paul Joyner. Paul replied with a hello back and Ryan wasted no time asking him to go out for dinner. Before the dinner date, the two conversed and realized that they actually went to the same gym for years already. Ryan never took a class at the gym and Paul only really took classes. With this commonality, they decided to meet for a cycle class a few days before the dinner date and the two hit it off and parted ways after. Later that night Ryan met with one Latasha James to hang out and could not stop talking about the amazing man he met. The only time he did stop talking about Paul was to run to the bathroom… multiple times due to severe food poisoning that lasted through the next morning. Ryan and Paul eventually met for dinner at Anita’s in Ferndale and the rest is a rich history of experiences, life lessons, and above all else LOVE.
