We can't wait to celebrate with you!

On December 31, 2011 - a young Jeffrey Harmeyer joined his older brother and friends at a New Year's Eve party at the most classic of places, Johnny's Hall of Fame, where he met a blonde, window dancing, Sammi Dillon. In freezing cold temperatures and a horribly long cab line, Jeff & Sammi devised a plan to "get engaged" in an attempt to jump the line. Jeff asked, Sammi said yes - and no one around them even budged. From there they went their separate ways, her to West Des Moines and him to Beaverdale but a flirtation was born. Through moves across the country and different relationships of their own - the two never forgot that "engagement" and every few months, would call each other out on social media about how their long engagement never seemed to end. Cut to 2018 - Jeff & Sammi both found themselves living back in their home city and one night in May at a friends birthday party, things took a turn from flirtation to actually seeing if this could be real. One year later, they were living together and a year after that in 2020 amidst being trapped together in quarantine they made the decision to be adults and purchase a home in Windsor Heights. Jeff took it a step further on February 12, 2021 when he made their engagement official - 10 years later - and gave Sammi a ring while the two were on an overnight get away in Kansas City. If you had told those two kids in 2011 that they'd actually marry each other one day - they would have laughed in your face. But the universe knew something that we didn't!
