I first saw Sebastian at his "Drop Night" where he learned what plane he would fly in the Air Force. I was instantly drawn to him. He was so cool, calm, and collected during one of the most stressful and suspenseful moments in a pilot's career. Our mutual friend, Lea, just smiled at me and said that was Sebastian, someone I needed to meet. Not long after, Lea convinced me to join her at a party at his house. He was throwing a crawfish boil for his classmates and neighbors. I found out later, Sebastian had planned this party just to meet me. I took my time and eventually showed up once the party was almost over. Thankfully, he was just happy to see me. We said hi, instantly connected and talked long into the night. We made plans the next day and the next and the rest was history. We have been chasing each other through the Air Force and across the world and have finally landed together in Florida. There's no better place to get married than the place we finally were able to settle down together.

As luck would have it, Sarah and I were next door neighbors through pilot training. I would see her passing my house as she went for runs and I made any excuse I could to be outside when I saw her approaching. I would sweep my driveway or clean out my truck, or even make my roommate pass the football in the front yard until she ran back passed on her way home. I eventually got the chance to say hi and knew I had to spend more time with her. I decided to throw a crawfish boil just to speak to her again. I spread the word strategically so she knew as well, but I was playing it cool to not seem too desperate. She indeed showed up to the boil so I thought I might have a chance. I officially invited her on a date myself for the next day. She said yes and we've been together ever since.
