How We Met

8.24.14

We met when I was entering college and Richie was a junior. My friend invited me to his room to hang out and listen to music. After a couple of days of hanging out, we decided to make it official. It has been almost 7 years since that day and we have continued to fall more in love with each other every day.

The Proposal

03.16.19

Richie proposed on a Saturday after he was done working. He text me to grab something for dinner. (If anyone knows me, you’d know I hate grocery shopping.) So I did the minimum and picked up the ingredients for Hamburger Helper. So Richie came home and cooked up dinner. As he was doing so, he asked me to pick out a movie to watch. While he was listing off romantic comedies, I thought it was a great idea to surprise him with the one Marvel movie we hadn’t watched yet: The Black Panther. So 15 minutes into the movie, he grabbed the ring out of his backpack and got on one knee and proposed. I was so thrown off guard, that I burst into tears right then and there. We are so ready to spend forever together and celebrate with all of you! :)

For all the days along the way
