We met at the Round Up in Tampa on my 21st birthday! We were introduced by one of my bridesmaids, Courtney. Ryan immediately offered to buy me shots to celebrate and we hit it off, even ended the night with a slow dance. I would love to say the rest is history, but we have been through a lot to get here and we wouldn't change it for the world.

We were at Clearwater Beach celebrating the 4th of July and had just finished dinner with all of our friends & family, we were headed to the beach to take sunset pictures with everyone... or so I thought. I found it odd that everyone was only taking pictures of Ryan and I, but kept smiling anyway. Ryan started crying and said "You know we are a team, right?" and that's when he got down on one knee. My heart burst and I cried and of course, I said yes! We are so excited to celebrate this next chapter of our life with you. See you in Tampa!
