Our Wedding

<p>Every love story has its beginning and ours starts in July of 2023. We met online which I know some people would never admit, but in this day and age it's pretty normal and it turned out to be the path to an amazing future with each other. Our first date was mini golfing at boomers where we soon learned we are both extremely competitive people and both play to win! After many games of golf and several games of air hockey (do not ask who won, you will get two different answers). We both knew there was a connection between us and we were so excited to see where our story would go. We started dating on July 19th 2023 and spent the next several months falling in love with each other and making unforgettable memories. Then us being the crazy people we are, we decided to get married, just the two of us at the courthouse and it was the best decision we have ever made. Shortly after getting married Cade left on his deployment but as luck would have it he was sent home two weeks later for an extra couple of months and he was able to be there to move into our apartment together in San Juan Capistrano. We are so excited to have our actual wedding surrounded by our friends and family on the same date we got married! We are excited for a life of adventures and stories with each other!</p>
