We met at a local club in Houston called Stereo Live where Joey would DJ. I really enjoyed his music and thought he was so cute so I approached him on multiple occasions. Although nothing ever flourished from our previous conversations, we reconnected at Stereo Live a year later when our friend groups crossed paths. Later that night, we just so happened to be at the same party! After hours of video games (which I won) and having fun banter, we made plans to go on our first official date! - Erica
With 2020 filled with so much negativity, I wanted to end the year in the best way possible. Erica and I always visited her family in Houston for the Holidays. On Christmas Eve with everyone over, I planted an engagement ornament on the Christmas tree. Later that evening Erica's mother called her over to see the new ornaments in the tree. She found the engagement ornament followed by me on one knee. Of course she said yes, and we went back to Los Angeles a newly engaged couple! - Joey
