It was Fall 2015. I had recently moved to Texas to finish my Bachelor's degree. Richard had already lived in Houston for several years with his family. Richard and I met through a mutual friend, our beloved Maid of Honor. At first, we were reluctant to date (let alone getting married!) because of the long distance. We started out being friends - but the romantic connection grew so strong that we couldn't resist falling in love. Richard drove hours and hours to see me, even just for a little while. Just like that, we were in a long distance relationship for almost 2 years before Richard moved to Dallas for his job, and most importantly, for me. And here we are - TYING THE KNOT!
