We met in college at the Univeristy of Central Florida. David was on his *first* senior year (we tease him that he did a fifth year to spend more time with me). I was a freshman and went with her sorority best friend Jamie to a frat party. At that party, I started rapping one of her favorite songs, Colt 45, and David spotted me from across the room. The rest was history.
David asked me to be his girlfriend on June 6, 2014 (which happens to be my birthday). Our whole relationship I teased him that I didn't want to share my birthday with our anniversary. So, on November 30, 2019 David changed that by asking me to marry him on HIS birthday! He said that he would take the anniversary + birthday combination away from me. David asked my parents' permission back in June and they had to keep it a secret a whole 6 months! After a private, romantic proposal, he had my family and his family come to Gainesville to surprise them! I was completely surprised and overwhelmed with emotion and excitement!
We love numbers and were so excited to choose such a fun wedding date (4-3-21)! It's an easy date to remember (you're welcome David!!!). The venue is a perfect place for us for a few reasons... 1. It's in Downtown Orlando, where we spent MANY nights in college. 2. It's on a rooftop - my favorite! 3. It overlooks the beautiful Lake Eola, but most importantly OUR FAVORITE DRUNK PIZZA PLACE - GITTOS! LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN!
