You're a snapshot of perfection.

Our story begins with a message on Plenty of Fish. (I know, eye roll for online dating.) I saw his tattoos, crazy curly hair, & dorky smile and was quick to send him a "Hey handsome!" message. I ALMOST didn't reply to his message back when he asked me to tell him about myself because I thought "Oh great, he's gonna think I'm lame." Turns out, I was exactly what he was looking for and vice versa. 😇 We were talking for a couple weeks when we accidentally ran into each other at VASA for the FIRST TIME! We were both sweaty & gross and definitely didn't plan to meet that way in person. Regardless, he asked me out to a real first date the next day & took me to Johnny Carino's for dinner. When he arrived to pick me up, he had 12 paper napkins folded into red roses & placed in a cute coffee mug. I still have that mug today and it's one of my favorites. ❤️ It was my first time at Johnny Carino's & it was such good food!! I remember being very shy & thinking, "NO WAY is this sexy man into me!" I kept hiding behind the menu like a dork because I couldn't stop grinning at how cute he was. Still gives me butterflies to think about! We went to get breakfast two days later at IHOP, and I brought it to his attention that he never asked me to be his girlfriend at dinner. Where did we stand now? He grabbed my hands, kissed them, looked into my eyes and asked if I would be his girlfriend. I was over the moon & couldn't contain my excitement! Here we are now, a year and a half later, living together with our 2 furbabies and planning this crazy shindig. We can't wait for October 25, 2019! 💍
