Our Relationship
We met in 2013, at a farewell dinner for a mutual friend. We started dating shortly thereafter in June of that year, which included a whirlwind of trips together all over the world: San Diego, London, Paris, Costa Rica - to name a few. Most importantly, however, were our trips to visit with family. As we started to learn more about each other and grow together, we both knew it was time. We were engaged in June 2014, and now we are getting married!
