Eric & Haley’s Love Story Our story began quietly, long before we ever knew what it would become. In 2012, we first met at work, where Haley was Eric’s waitress. Life moved on, as it often does, and while we remained Facebook friends over the years, timing simply wasn’t right. Nearly ten years later, the stars finally began to align. As Eric reached out to Haley on Instagram, their mutual friend Liz happened to be speaking highly of him—a coincidence that immediately intrigued Haley. Even so, the spark didn’t happen right away. Eric waited patiently, and about a year later, timing finally caught up to them. Their first date was at Topgolf, and from that evening forward, everything changed. What began as a simple outing quickly grew into something deep and lasting. Over the next three years, they built their relationship through shared experiences—traveling together, learning about one another, and growing side by side. Along the way, they fell deeply in love and discovered places that would forever hold meaning for them, especially New Orleans, a city that became part of their story and their hearts. On Haley's Birthday weekend, in New Orleans, Eric asked Haley to spend her life with him. In a moment filled with love, intention, and a meaningful full-circle connection, Haley said yes. Today, they are preparing to be married at Winchester Country Club, filled with gratitude for the journey that brought them here and excitement for the life ahead. Their family has grown as well. They welcomed their cat, Tiger Lilly, and Eric’s French bulldog, Tiffany, who has found her home—and heart—right beside Haley. Ours is a story of patience, timing, and love that found its way exactly when it was meant to. We are endlessly thankful for the past that led us here and the future we now share.
