Kassie had recently just moved to Virginia from Raleigh, NC. She decided to join a gym in her new neighborhood of Ballston. Richard was an instructor at the gym, however, at the time was just getting back into it from shoulder surgery. One day, they both went to the same class and set equipment up right next to each other, coincidence? In true Richard form, between his outgoing personality and competitive nature, he asked "hey you wanna race?" From there there was some social media messaging exchange, then a phone number exchange, and some casual conversation back and forth. All leading to a first "official" date on the Georgetown waterfront on Memorial Day weekend 2015. Fast forward to December 27, 2016, Richard asked Kassie to marry him in their home in Arlington, Virginia. The proposal was just the two of us at home, making dinner together. It was simple, romantic, and perfect! We can't wait to celebrate and share our love with all of our family and friends! -The Future Reillys
