The magic of destiny

Harry Potter brought us together, on a very special day.........

Sthephanie: Back in July 31st, 2015, I had just returned from the Disney College Program (tour #1) and my brother needed someone to take him to the airport for a Boy Scout convention in Michigan. I volunteered because I wanted to take advantage of the 2 hour drive to visit my favorite mall in the island (Plaza) and along the way a friend of his (Luis) called and asked for a ride to the airport as well. I was reluctant because at the time I drove my very tiny Fiat but agreed to do it anyways. Little did I know that day changed the course of history forever. Luis: After getting to the airport I mentioned that the anniversary of JK Rowling and Harry Potter was July 31st and I saw how she reacted to it saying that she was celebrating as well! We got to talking all things Harry Potter and I mentioned that I had a Facebook page dedicated to Harry Potter exclusively and she immediately followed it. We didn't talk after that, until a few weeks later when I added her on Facebook and started chatting. After a while she kept insisting I watch this show called Friends and I wanted her to watch Sherlock so I made her an offer. I would watch 2 "Friends" episodes IF she watched a "Sherlock" one AND agreed to go on a movie date with me. And the rest is history! On March 19th, 2016 we watched "Zootopia" because we are also both huge Disney fans. The next day we celebrated our first holiday together, St. Patricks Day, by going to the St. Paddy parade and we dated for a while until May 14th 2016 when I took her to the beach at sunset and asked her to officially be my girlfriend. Two years later, we visited our favorite place in the world, Hogwarts at Universal Studios, and right in front of the castle I proposed to Sthephanie with a golden snitch. Now, we are getting ready to officially become husband and wife and we have picked the perfect day to do so, July 31st, 2021. 6 years after the day we met, 5 years after we started dating and 3 years after getting engaged.
