How It Started

12.04.2015

So how we met depends on who’s telling the story...

Amira's Side

Terrell and I met through a mutual friend, Aly, at a social gathering with friends, great food and drinks. I found myself sitting right next to Terrell. We laughed and conversed for a while. I was so relaxed during our conversation that I did not realize my heel almost created a laceration on his foot. It was not intentional. YIKES! But I did make my mark. He politely asked me to move my foot. At that point I figured I ruined that connection. I noticed Terrell and his bestfriend, Max, having side talks with each other while glancing at me every now and then. I got the hint that he was interested. I played it cool and told my friend Aly "Don't let me leave without getting his number". Aly is a trooper and the best wing man. Needless to say, she made it happen. Terrell and I dated for about 2 months before making it official. We've built a beautiful home together, support each other as we continue to advance our professional careers and now we are planning to spend forever together.

Terrell's Side

Terrell's Side I was invited out to a small gathering at what is now one of my favorite restaurants, Green Lemon. Shortly after ordering my 3rd adult beverage this beautiful woman walked in and greeted everyone at the table. My best friend, Max, tapped me on the shoulder and told me to stop staring and say something. Eventually, we introduced ourselves to one another. As the night progressed, I noticed my foot was killing me and I couldn’t understand why. I looked down and to my surprise, Amira’s high heels were stabbing me while she was having a blast listening to the music. I looked at her and asked “Can you take your foot off me please, it’s killing me?” Of course, she laughed. Once she walked away, I asked my other best friend Jean, “What’s her name again?” He told me he couldn’t remember but would help me to figure it out. Jean looked at me and asked if I was ready? I nodded “Yes”. He asked her what’s her name again, how to spell it, use it in a sentence, and repeat it once more. She actually did it while laughing. I was confident that I wouldn’t screw up her name. I asked for her number. What started as a night out with friends, I ended up finding the love of my life.

The Proposal

08.08.2020

Of course, the recent pandemic put a damper on many things including our housewarming. Terrell was very adamant about planning a housewarming party in August of 2020. We made plans to have our friends over to celebrate our new home. Terrell gave everyone who attended the heads up that he planned to propose that day. Little did Amira know, we were just having friends over. Our friends arrived, the food was great and there was nothing but love in our home. Then, Amira's friend, Tiffany, pulled her outside side to “talk”. It was 10000 degrees outside, so of course Amira is expecting this to be a quick chat. Some time flew by and the door swung open. BOOM! All of our friends lined up on both sides of our long entryway, music was playing and each person was holding a flower. At the end of the hall was Terrell on one knee waiting to ask Amira to be his forever!
