We were both new to the team, thrown into the same area, but we didn't hit it off right away. In fact, we didn't like each other much at first. There was something about our personalities that just didn’t seem to click—not then. I remember the awkward silences and those glances that didn’t mean anything at all… or maybe they did, but neither of us could see it yet. The days went by, and while we weren't exactly friends, the small moments started to add up. A shared joke during a break, a question about work that turned into a longer conversation than either of us expected. Slowly, we found ourselves talking more often, almost by accident. Before we knew it, we were hanging out after work—getting to know each other beyond the walls of Honda, beyond the jobs we were supposed to be doing. Somewhere along the way, we realized we had more in common than we thought. There were the late-night talks, the laughter over shared stories, and the simple comfort of just being around each other. Our friendship was easy, effortless, and before we knew it, it was something more. It wasn’t planned, but it was real. Then, of course, there were the dogs. We both had one—his with boundless energy and mine with a calm, quiet presence. But when we came together, it was a whole new dynamic. Our dogs, who had their own personalities and quirks, became part of our world in a way we hadn’t anticipated. They were more than just pets; they were the glue that kept us closer, giving us moments of joy, fun, and even challenges to navigate together. Now, we share not just the love we’ve built but also the three dogs who keep us on our toes: two energetic huskies who make every walk an adventure and our little Shih Tzu who insists on being the boss. We’ve created a life that is fuller than we ever imagined, one that started with the simplest of things—two people, a few awkward moments, and a lot of unexpected love. Now, after nearly four years of shared adventures, laughter, and growing together, we are excited to announce the next chapter of our story—our wedding day. On May 31, we will marry, surrounded by our closest friends and family, celebrating not just our love for each other but the beautiful life we’ve built together. We’d be honored to have you join us on this special day as we say "I do." This day marks the beginning of our forever, and we can’t imagine starting it without the people who mean the most to us.
