Our story

As told by the bride to be

James and I met on May 6, 2017, at the Westin Hotel’s rooftop lounge, also known to us locals as L27. I was there for a birthday gathering. James walked right up to me and struck up a conversation immediately. We became Facebook friends. We maintained a professional, Facebook friendship and James even invited me to his job to do a speaking engagement. We kept it 100% professional. I didn’t see James again until May 5, 2018, for the same birthday gathering as the year before! By that evening, James walked me to my uber and asked me for my number before opening the car door for me. I gladly gave him my number thinking “This guy just feels different. It’s worth a shot!” He texted me that night and called the next day. A few days later, James had invited me on our first date. He’s a member of a fraternity and they were having a gala. By May 12, 2018, James and I were on our first date. I wore a long black gown and he wore a suit. We had a perfect evening. We have been going strong ever since! I had no idea when James would propose. My birthday is on January 29th. James and I decided on doing dinner on my birthday and then calling it a day. Just a simple dinner for two. After dinner, James asked me if I wanted to go back to where we met. We had been talking about going back for a year and never did so I thought it was sweet! We walked in and to my surprise, tons of my friends had shown up with birthday gifts and cards wishing me a happy birthday! I went around and hugged everyone and after ten minutes or so, James had an announcement. The next thing you know he was down on one knee with tears streaming down his face asking me to be his wife. Needless to say, this is a birthday that I will never forget. I am overwhelmed with joy and gratitude to God to be preparing to marry my best friend.
