How we met!

First comes school, then comes marriage!

Javier and Courtney met back in 2015 in the small town of Arcata in Humboldt County, CA. Javier worked at the school gym where Courtney spent a lot of time working out and admiring Javier from afar since he had no idea who she was and Courtney worked at a small outdoor store in town. They were complete opposites in every way possible. On one fateful day while she was changing the mannequins in the window Javier walked by and finally noticed her! He decided to come in and "shop" for pants he didn't actually need. She did her best not to show how nervous and sweaty she was from finally talking to her gym crush. After a few minutes of chatting he left empty handed and left Courtney feeling like she was on Cloud 9 from the adrenaline rush. The next day at the gym they ended up running into each other and Courtney used every excuse she could find to talk to him and ask him questions about exercises and training. Eventually they became friends and hung out in the gym whenever Javier was working. As the school year came to an end Javier went home for summer and Courtney graduated college and started dating someone else. Fall of 2015 is when everything changed for them. Courtney ended her relationship and Javier came back to Arcata to finish his last year of school. After finding out Courtney was single Javier jumped on the chance to ask her out before she finished her workout that day. She replied with "let me see if I can pencil you in," thinking she was playing hard to get, but it just left Javier feeling confused on if that was a yes or a no. A few weeks later they ended up going hiking at Strawberry Rock in Trinidad, CA and have been inseparable ever since! Three and a half years later and Javier proposed at the very same spot as their first date!
