We began talking in April of 2015 during college. Briana was in her sophomore year and Max was in his senior year. After some star-gazing and cute restaurant dates, we decided to officially become boyfriend and girlfriend on June 27th of 2015. On June 28th of 2015, Briana caught pneumonia and spent 3 days at Enloe Hospital in Chico. This was our first official date as boyfriend and girlfriend. Constant beeping of machines, bad hospital food, and breathing treatments set the stage for a very romantic connection. Laughter, kindness, a little bit of adventure, and a whole lot of love is how we started our relationship, and it is what's guided us the past 8 years. We are thrilled to take our next step in this journey together and we can't wait to celebrate with all of you.
