We met February 2017 a few months after we started online correspondence. Travis wasn't even sure if I liked him since my messages were short while his were wordy. Little did he know, I would be talking his ear off for the rest of our lives. Our first date was in downtown Chicago at Hot Wok Cool Sushi on Michigan avenue. Afterwards, we grabbed drinks nearby. On our way back from grabbing drinks, Travis suggested we take a picture. To be honest, I thought it was an odd request for our first meeting but he seemed harmless enough. Now we cherish that documentation of our first meeting. Now many selfies later, it's my favorite way to capture our love. For our engagement Travis proposed in that very spot nearly 7 years later! We are so excited to now be joined as husband and wife on our 7 year anniversary April 27th, 2024, during an intimate courthouse ceremony. We invite you all to share in our happiness with a special ceremony and reception on May 18th, 2024.
