Andy and I actually have several mutual friends and grew up only 30 miles from one another but as far as we know, our paths never crossed "naturally." After years of dabbling with dating and finding lots of dead ends, a mutual friend worked her magic, played cupid and convinced Andy to reach out. A few reluctant text messages and calls later, a date was established. We went to dinner, blind date awkwardness, nervous anticipation and all, and several hours into the evening realized we hadn't even ordered yet. Now, I can't say it was "love at first site" or any of those cliché things you hear about in the movies, but there was an instant familiarity and appreciation for each other. It was so refreshing and....exciting! A 2nd date was quickly established. And so our story goes.... First date March of 2016 Bought our first house, together July of 2017 Got engaged March of 2018 TO BE MARRIED August of 2019 Love, my friends, is a beautiful thing and we can’t wait to celebrate it and share this amazing day with you all!!
