An airport romance

Let us set the scene. It's 2023 at Denver International Airport. The terminal is buzzing with hundreds of travelers - business people boarding for their next meeting, families traveling to see loved ones, vacationers eager to travel the world. At the airport Starbucks, two unsuspecting crew members are waiting in line to get their coffees and start their work day. Suddenly, and awkwardly, a tall, blonde flight attendant bumps her luggage into a young, handsome first officer. They immediately lock eyes and spark a conversation. The young first officer offered to pay for the flight attendant's coffee and thus begun their first date - a love story fit for a Hallmark movie. ... Just kidding. Marc and Lauren met on the dating app, Bumble! The couple immediately bonded over their shared values, faith, love of aviation, tacos, and country singer Luke Combs. Their first date was in downtown Denver at Barcelona Wine Bar in 2023 where at the end of the night Marc told Lauren, "I like you!" and Lauren replied.... "you're fun." Not sure what to do with that response, Marc was hoping for a 2nd date. Which lead to a few, which lead to a relationship. It became apparent that they knew they had found something special in each other and on December 20, 2024, Marc proposed to Lauren at Gaylord Rockies Resort and Convention Center. We are so excited to announce our wedding in Louisville, Colorado and even more excited to celebrate with you all!
