Let's fast forward to the magic! ✨✨✨ It was a crisp November night in 2018 at Art, Beats and Lyrics when Mike and Drea finally met in person. They had known each other since 2015 but finally decided to meet with each other. Drea had traveled down to Houston and let Mike she'd be in town. Mike couldn't wait to see her. The night was filled with dancing, mesmerizing art, lively conversation, picture taking, and incredible music. You would never have guessed it was their first time meeting because everything felt to effortless and natural. Can you say, LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT? Well, not yet. 😉 But that wasn't the end of their night! Mike and Drea (along with friends) found themselves at a Houston popular restaurant called, The Breakfast Club. Honestly, they weren't ready for their time together to end. Their love story continued with visits back and forth, each goodbye growing more difficult than the last. I mean, who really like long distance relationships??? After a year and a half of long-distance romance, Mike made the big move to Dallas to be with Drea. Over the years, they nurtured a bond filled with closeness, love and deepening faith. They blended their families, friends, and lives into one beautiful tapestry. On May 20, 2022, Mike asked Drea to be his forever. Of course, she said YES! 😜💍 AND now, after 5 years, 10 months, and 23 days (but who's counting 🤷🏽), they are overjoyed to become husband and wife, entering the sacred covenant.
