it's finally happening!

We'd known of each other for a couple of years, but our paths never lined up. Finally, in the midst of the pandemic, soy chorizo tacos and Instagram brought us together 🌮 I was on a year-long fast of not eating meat and was desperately looking for meat alternatives. Ruben took that as the perfect opportunity to slide into my DM's on Instagram 📲 Mr. Smooth offered to cook me some homemade soy chorizo tacos as a nice meat-alternative meal and I agreed after a several hour long FaceTime call. He ended up taking me on an unofficial date that same week for sushi - don't worry he cooked for me 3 days later... and the rest is history. Since that hangout, it's been nothing but adventures with my chef. All it took was a worldwide pandemic for each of us to finally meet "the one" 😂🖤

Because I figured out which weekend he planned to propose, he had to improvise! He kept taking me on date nights to try and throw me off. Then, on August 28th, he was driving me to a certain spot in San Fransisco and told me I had to close my eyes... Of course, I had him pull over first so I could finish my makeup and then off we were! Once we arrived at the spot, he took me out of the car and lead me to a trail where the sunset was GORGEOUS. He had planned an entire setup that was waiting for us and then I saw my good friend taking our photos... The tears started rolling 😂 We got to the end of the trail where he made his speech and got down on one knee... "YES!!!!" Is all I'm pretty sure I said through the tears. It could not have been more perfect! 🖤

OKAY, HERE'S THE PLAN... We are getting married on September 17th, 2021 and you're invited!! 👰🏽‍♀️🤵🏽‍♂️ We know it's fast! Due to us moving to Texas very soon and wanting to continue to be cautious with COVID, we are keeping the ceremony extremely small. We ask that this be a 21 & over wedding and that only the people stated in the RSVP attend. We hope to give you a fun adult date-night without the kiddos as we celebrate our new journey together!
