We're Getting Married

April 2018, Tammy decided to take a much needed birthday vacation with her sister Melinda and cousin Michelle to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. On Tammy's birthday, the group decided to go on a party boat cruise. Jochy a photographer for the party boats in Punta Cana was called in to work on April 26, 2018. He did not want to work that day, and even tried to get a friend to work for him. With his manager threatening his job, he begrudgingly went in to work that day. As a group of people got off the shuttle and came to wait for the party boat instructions...Jochy saw Tammy. He told all of the other men working on the boat that day, "don't talk to that girl...she's my future wife." Tammy had no clue. She was just excited to celebrate her birthday. About halfway through the trip, she noticed there was a photographer taking photos of guests. At one point, she asked him if he could take her picture too. He brushed her off and said "I'll get to you". (which she thought was bit rude). So Jochy continues to take pictures of everyone on the boat including Tammy's sister Melinda (who got a full photoshoot); losing patience Tammy says "it's my birthday, I want to take pictures too." Again she felt like she got brushed off. Finally, after what seemed like forever Jochy took pictures of Tammy. Little to Tammy's knowledge, Jochy had devised a master plan... IGNORE HER SO SHE SPEAKS TO YOU. He had purposely taken photos of everyone else on the boat first so she would get jealous and speak to him. After photos, the boat stopped at the natural pool. Jochy offered to teach Tammy how to swim, and a little Spanish. After the boat ride Jochy asked what the girls were doing that night. Tammy desperately wanted to get out of the resort for one night. Jochy offered to take the girls to a local club. The girls ended up meeting Jochy and his friends at Drink Point and danced the night away. Tammy & Jochy exchanged numbers & the rest is history.
