We're getting married!

Shannon never thought of a natural disaster as an opportune time to meet the man she would spend the rest of her life with - fortunately for Matt her cousin had other plans. Hurricane Irma was quickly approaching the state of Florida and tracking towards Ft Myers, the town Shannon lived in. Shannon grew up in central Florida, making it a logical destination for her to go when she was ordered to evacuate. As luck would have it, Matt had recently moved to Orlando and became friends with (follow me here) Shannon's cousin's husband. In typical Florida fashion, there was a hurricane party scheduled the night Shannon arrived. Being a native to the state (and a little persuasion from her cousin), Shannon didn't find it too irresponsible to attend such an event. Matt had grown up in Ormond Beach and needed no persuasion, in fact there's nothing else he would be doing during a hurricane other than attending a hurricane party. In spite of the stormy conditions, things went pretty smooth for both Shannon and Matt upon being introduced. As ironic as it is, at a time when most people were packing up and leaving things behind, Matt and Shannon were brought together and have been inseparable ever since.
