We were both designing and selling jewelry and a mutual acquaintance introduced us over Facebook. What started as a business relationship developed into friendship and as our lives changed, into more. Eventually we decided that maybe we should meet, which was monumental as we lived on opposite coasts. We met (and totally clicked) and decided to try a long-distance relationship. We are proof that love can overcome time, distance, and the odds.
After a particularly long period apart, Tom came back out to California to see Tammy. It was the longest we had ever been apart from each other. We spent several days getting reacquainted with each other and realized that we didn't want to be apart ever again. The day before Tom flew back to Pennsylvania, we went to one of our favorite cities in the world - San Francisco. At the Palace of Fine Arts, he got down on one knee and asked for a forever promise. Of course the answer was yes!
