On a lovely afternoon, I got a picture like on the dating app called Hinge. Michael had liked my picture of steak and cucumbers. We got to texting and hit it off from then on. Our first date was at Sake Japanese Steakhouse where I talked his ear off about how I pictured my next relationship. He listened with intent and chimed in when he thought it was right. From then on, we were inseparable. Date after date, our love grew, and we made it official in October of 2024. We are so lucky and grateful to have finally met someone that fits our needs, wants, values, and desires. We can't wait to enjoy our wedding surrounded by the people who have seen it all.
