We met…well, you know…the traditional way….online ;). E harmony was our matchmaker but it really was that magical lunch at his favorite Anna’s Taqueria that had me swooning. After many shared meals and adventures between the east coast, west coast and one long stretch to the Middle East…it was evident that not even thousands of miles of distance could keep us apart. Our future was not certain but our love stood the test of time!

So many emotions to sum up this amazing trip…after a 7 hour flight delay, I was exhausted and as I dragged myself out of Orlando airport to be picked up curbside, I was met with the surprise of a lifetime! As i walked toward him, he got down on one knee with a big smile and asked me to marry him….Happy to announce I’m on the road to becoming Mrs. Tripp!! The best part of the surprise was my cousin making the trek to be the secret film crew! They got me so good!
