In July 2020, during the peak of the global pandemic, we both accepted jobs at a COVID-19 testing lab in Bellingham. After a few weeks of small talk about video games, podcast swapping, and music recommendations, Ryan made the first move. A month later, we were officially dating! 4 years (almost to the day) after their first date, Ryan got on one knee and popped the question at the top of Whistler Peak. Our wedding is being held on the one-year anniversary of our engagement, and we are so excited to share that day with you.
