About Us
Our Love Story
Dan and I finally met on January 21st, 2022, after a bit of a chase! He had followed me on several dating apps before finding me on Instagram, where I decided it was time to call him out. I told him to either take me out or move on—and thankfully, he took me out!
Our first date was nothing short of magical. It started at Bushwackers, with some video poker, line dancing, and even a first kiss. We instantly connected and knew there was something special between us. That night ended with laughter, adventure, and a bond that has only grown stronger.
In almost three years, we’ve created countless memories and gone on many incredible adventures. Now, we’re excited to take the next step and say our “I dos,” committing to a lifetime of love, laughter, and new adventures together.
