“I think about the day I knew I’d meet Ryan. I was excited to set him and a friend up to maybe start something new. That night when we got to the bar I saw Ryan in person and thought “oh no, what a cute guy.” But I still spent the night trying to get them to sit together and talk together. It didn’t work. However, I found myself talking to Ryan the rest of the night. He was so funny and attentive. His eyes were brilliant blue and kind. I really wanted to spend more time with him. We spent an entire week texting back and forth before we went out on a real date. I couldn’t believe when we were together how perfect it felt and how it felt like fate. Through the good and the bad it may not always be as perfect as it was in the beginning but there’s literally no where else I would rather be than by Ryan’s side. He’s an incredible human being and an amazing father to our little monkey. I can’t wait to marry him and hang out with him forever.”- Erika “When I think about how I met Erika I can’t help but feel like it was meant to be. Through a series of events I found myself meeting up with my sister at a local bar. When I arrived she had some friends sitting with her at a table. Unbeknownst to me they were all trying to setup me up with another friend of theirs. I couldn’t keep my eyes off of Erika. We hit it off and everyone else just kind of faded away into the background as the night wore on. I liked her right away. I knew she was special. We exchanged numbers and talked the rest of the night. We went on our first date a week later. The longest week of my life. I asked Erika to be my girlfriend that night. Since then we have have had a lot of adventures. I’ve watched her become amazing mother to our daughter as well as having her love and support. Erika is a kind, caring partner who puts others first. Who has supported me through everything since we first started dating and to whom I will have the pleasure and the honor of calling my wife in the near future.” -Ryan
