How we met!

First comes WeFest, then comes marriage ;)

After both of us deciding to buy tickets days before the concert, we ended up being camping neighbors at WeFest. Little did we know the world it would turn into for the both of us! After Brooke ran into him at the concert (which is a feat in itself if you know how big the venue is), she recognized him from meeting him earlier in the day. Her phone was dead (which is not crazy for her, she apparently doesn't believe in phone chargers), she went up to Erik to ask to borrow his phone so she could call her friends to figure out where they were. Her feet were hurting from her boots, and she let Erik know she had to go back to change her shoes. Erik made sure she made it back safe with her friends and gave her his crocs for the rest of the weekend. They exchanged phone numbers and she "accidentally" went home with his crocs at the end of the weekend. They then met up a couple weeks after in Grand Rapids where Erik was living at the time, so that Brooke could give back his crocs...and the rest is history! We have now went back to WeFest with our friends three times after, but those times as a couple!
