“ Can you believe we’re getting Married?”

We first met in 2016 when he walked into a backyard one summers weekend. Later that year I offered Eric a ride to the store. That short ride forever changed everything. Sitting at a light he glances over to asked to kiss me. My heart pounding, I said yes. On the way home he bought me a rose something simple but unforgettable, and the Beginning of something beautiful. Our first date was at a steak house and then that weekend apple picking, making apple pie and dancing in the kitchen as the world belonged to us. Life, happens and I ended up moved away. One night I received a Fb message, from there it was simple little hello's. To me coming back to NY for a visit in September of 2023. Who knew this would change our world. Years of flying back and forth to New York spending only a week at a time. Countless phone calls, emails, and text messages. Falling in love. I flew back for what felt like would be the last time. Who knew that weekend would change our lives. When he pinned me down, that moment things changed in our world. Three months later Eric flew to Oregon and moved me back. Our journey has been filled with laughter, distance, reunion, and unwavering devotion. We've learned that true love isn't about perfection. -It's about choosing each other. over and over again, and now, as we begin this next chapter as husband and wife. This isn't just how a story of how we met It's a story of forever.
