Our First Date

From the Grooms Perspective

It all started a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. I had finally gotten her to agree to a date involving a movie and bowling. While arriving to pick her up I couldn't help but notice that besides the freezing temperature she was still hot as hell. When we got to the first location of the date (after winning her over with my immaculate singing) we arrived at the bowling alley only for us to be thrown a curve ball of having a bowling tournament taking place. Thinking quick on my feet I was able to google the showtimes for a different movie and purchased two tickets for the killer movie that is, How The Grinch Stole Christmas. After watching the masterpiece that was, we made our way back to the bowling alley being greeted by many open lanes. While Shyanne talked up a mad game on her bowling skills, she was no match for my dumb luck and idiotic determination to woo her over this fine night. After all was said and done and returning her to her humble dorm room, we talked for hours and seemed to really enjoy each others company. Right before my departure, looking her in her ocean blue eyes I had to drop the bomb shell that was... I am going on leave for two weeks and leave in three days. After the look of shock and awkwardness on her face dissipated We went our separate ways for the night still talking over texts and calls. While on leave we both stayed close in conversation and proceeded to fall even more for her until my return to Wyoming. There we met back up upon my return and hit up the finest of locations in Cheyenne. Which happened to be The Frontier Mall. Upon arrival I proceeded to pop the question asking her to be my girlfriend only to be struck with the brick of truth being her rejection. Walking hand in hand into the mall I proceeded to tell her that I would never ask again only for her to fall back on her words and say yes to my satisfaction. And I have been happy ever since and couldn't see myself with anyone else. - Ashton Denk

Our First Date

From the Brides Perspective

We matched on Tinder twice in a matter of months. When we first talked, I wasn't really looking for a relationship. We kind of just dismissed each other till we matched for the second time, he convinced me to go on a date with him which started off as going bowling. As we were on our way to the Bowling Alley, he was serenating me the entire time to I want it that way by The Backstreet Boys. Only to be told that the lanes are all booked for a tournament, with his quick thinking we then went to the movies. It was December so Christmas movies were playing, he had bought tickets ahead but didn't tell me what they were till the movie was starting. We had watched How the Grinch Stole Christmas, even though I had seen the movie a million times this time seemed different. As we were driving back to the bowling alley we were just talking and of course I was talking a big game of how I was going to beat him; I in fact did not beat him that night: I had the best night as we were driving home to the dorms, he dropped the news that he was going on leave for 2 weeks and that he left in three days. I was distraught, this kid that I had just had the best first date ever with is leaving for two weeks. During those weeks, my family had come to see me for Christmas and mentally I wasn't there. I was already falling for "this kid. " At this point every love song was about him and I just wanted to be with Ashton. He finally comes back, we meet up and go to the mall where he proceeds to ask me the question of if I will be his Girlfriend, I thinking I was being funny said no. He then walks off smirking and I walk behind him eating my words telling him that I was joking. He said, " Well don't worry I just won't ask again." We have now been together for almost two years I could not be happier. I also cannot wait to marry him. -Shyanne
