Like all good love stories begin, this one takes place at a divey bar in DC during the summer of 2013. Michael insists that Heather became intoxicated by his dance moves, but realistically it may have had more to do with the three hours of half-priced cocktails. Either way they soon discovered that both considered Bel Biv Devoe to be the songbirds of a generation and their fate was sealed. A tale as old as time. For their first date they watched a Husker football game at an alumni bar in DC followed by a Jason Aldean concert. Their relationship grew through adventure, love of music and sports, and their mutual sense of humor. She likes his blue eyes, good natured wit, passion for his career, and his bravery when teaching her how to ski. He likes her spontaneity, superior intelligence, and the way she makes sure he is awake during the most important parts of Selena. Together they love eachother and their chihuahua, Lola. 5 years worth of memories later and a move to San Francisco, with ten months of being long-distance in between, Michael finally got the good sense that it was time to make Heather an honest woman. Opportunity was served on a silver platter when, along with their friends Andrew and Meghan, Heather booked flights to London for Thanksgiving 2018. During the trip planning, the two opted to squeeze a in few days in Paris as well. The scene was set. After spending an entire day at Versailles, the two made their way to their Airbnb that was home to incredible views of the Eiffel Tower. Seizing the moment, Michael dropped to one knee on their balcony as they overlooked the glittering lights. After a few minutes of shock, Heather finally said yes and the rest is history!
