While both of us were in college, we came home for the winter break and found ourselves making plans to hang out with our childhood friends (Gabby and Ryan) to celebrate a new year. It was a cold night but the sparks between us started flying immediately. After that first time hanging out, we became friends quickly and supported each other through a lot of growing up and many different seasons in life - both laughs and tears - until the stars aligned for us to turn our deep friendship into a loving relationship. Fast forward 14 years later and we're both so excited to be marrying not only our best friend, but the greatest love of our life. The picture below is from August 2018 (the first birthday we celebrated as a couple).
