How we met

It all began on July 21, 2021, in Dallas, Texas. Both Sarah and Daniel had recently relocated to the city, each starting a new chapter in life after college. At that point, neither of them knew who the other was, but God had already set the stage for something special. Their first interaction was in a professional group setting at their public accounting firm—an ordinary conversation that would later turn into something extraordinary. The topic? “How far along are you on the CPA tests?” Hardly a moment that would spark a lifelong connection, but in hindsight, it was a perfect beginning. As the days and months went by, Sarah and Daniel quickly realized they had more in common than just work. They bonded over shared passions like fitness, an appreciation for good food (especially baking and cooking), their love for music, and their faith. They spent countless hours getting to know one another—laughing, learning, and enjoying the simple moments. The relationship took its next step in February 2022 when they began dating. Their first date was one they’ll always remember—dinner at Rise Soufflé in Dallas, followed by Sarah’s favorite treat, frozen yogurt. It was the beginning of many more dates, adventures, and moments of joy that would define their relationship in the months and years to come. Fast forward to August 10, 2024—on a day that was just as unforgettable as their first date—Daniel asked Sarah to marry him. With the same warmth and love they had shared from the very beginning, she said yes, and they began the next chapter of their lives together. Daniel and Sarah are beyond excited to share the celebration of their commitment to one another with you on May 17th, 2025!
