We met in Grand Rapids, MI while attending Grand Rapids Community College in 2012. We met through a group of friends that we will forever cherish. After attending classes all week, we would all head out to enjoy "Thirsty Thursday's" at the local bar. Our friends referred to each other as the 'Ciroc Boys' and 'Ciroc Girls'. What started as a group of friends just hanging out turned into Brandon plotting to make his move. After missing a few weeks of spending time during the Holiday's, it was obvious that Brandon was eager to finally make his move. As our groups started to spend more time, Clarissa noticed that Brandon was giving her the flirty eyes. At one of the gatherings Clarissa noticed Brandon on the other side of the room smiling and in return she said "come here boo". Brandon nearly jumped across the room and the rest is history. From 2012, we've been locked in. We made each other a priority, set goals for ourselves and made moves to have a successful future. From there we have been achieving our goals one by one. We're now #OnTheRunToPaschall and we're excited for all of our loved ones to join us.

Following the pandemic, we decided to plan a birthday trip for Brandon's 31st Birthday. Brandon found a beautiful beachfront home in Caseville, MI that we rented and invited a few of our closest family and friends. The house was absolutely beautiful and had amazing views of Lake Michigan. The back of the house was all glass and the June lake sunsets were a view we'll never forget. The weather the entire weekend was absolutely beautiful. During the day the sun was shining and the breeze that blew through the open windows from the lake was absolutely perfect. The first night we made tacos and drank Brandon's famous tequila margaritas. We laughed, danced and brought Brandon's Birthday in having an amazing time. The next morning Brandon was presented with a large birthday breakfast made by the ladies of the house. For his birthday we ate amazing food, spent time swimming, and lounged on the beach as Brandon curated a dope music playlist for the weekend. While on the beach, the group started taking pictures to remember this much needed getaway with our family and friends. One of the last pictures taken was of Clarissa and her sister. Meanwhile, Brandon was right behind Clarissa and was down on one knee prepared to ask for her hand in Marriage. After the last picture was taken, Clarissa turned around to find Brandon kneeling on the shore with waves crashing where he asked if she would marry him. While Clarissa thought this trip was for Brandon's birthday, little did she know her husband-to-be actually planned everything to give her the surprise of her life... on his birthday! That moment will always be paused in time because it was magical and couldn't have been planned any better. That night everyone had an amazing time celebrating the beginning of #OnTheRunToPaschall. Moments like these will live with us forever. We cannot wait until the day we say "I Do".
