Started from the friend zone, now we're here.

Why don’t melons get married? Because they cantaloupe.

It's go time, people!!! (From the perspective of Paige) We met while I was coaching at Orangetheory and Jared joined as a member about 2 years later. We became friends very quickly and hung out with our friend group frequently at the best bar EVER, Time Out. A place where you come for the arcade games and stay for the karaoke. Stop in on a Saturday and you'll catch Jared at Ms. Pac-Man and me at Burger Time. But as soon as A-Aron gives the all call, stick around for us to drop a duet on your ass, harmony included. Along with our barcade hangout spot, we would chat about life stuff including his dating life via online dating. For those of you who know him, you can imagine his jitters and excitement talking about dates he was planning, who these girls were, and a play-by-play of how it went. I had to tease him about it and was thankful that I've never had to experience online dating! Still definitely friends at this point, there was no hint of a potential relationship for us. He would later tell me that I was his best friend in the Ames area and I was super jazzed to hear that! I went through a tough time and he was a shoulder for me to cry on. I was incredibly thankful for him and our friendship grew exponentially. Neither of us saw it coming; this relationship changed quite literally overnight. Both of us were cold cocked with a decision of whether we should pursue a relationship together or not. Though circumstances at the time made it a hard decision, I am very happy to have said yes to him then, and now, too. With a house purchased together and a wedding to plan, you can say shit's serious for us turd furgs. Cementing the love that blossomed so quickly and out of no where, we are ready to tie that knot! For those of you who are actually still reading this mushy garbage, we sincerely cannot wait to spend a day with you to celebrate our love and thank you for being part of our day. ❤️❤️❤️
