Our Wedding

<h1>The Story of Us</h1>One day in mid-2011, I (Anne-Marie) got a Facebook notification, out of the blue, from a friend I hadn't heard from in ages. Dave and I had run in the same circles for some time, starting in our early teen years. Dave was a Kanata kid and myself, a Bells Corners kid. Dave was even friends with my younger sister, Charlene, for some time. But after many years had passed us by, we officially fell out of touch.It wasn't until 2011, that we ended up reconnecting for the first time. Dave had noticed me on my Plenty of Fish profile and decided to not reach out to me there. Instead he added me on Facebook, and started a dialogue there. After numerous chats and a lot communication, he finally asked me out.Which… I rejected. I said no to Dave at first because I thought "If we didn't hit it off in the past, maybe it wasn't meant to be." Luckily, Dave didn't stop there.Instead he came to my neighborhood! Now at this time I was living in the Byward Market, which Dave knew well. So when he went out for a night on the downtown scene, to Patty Bowlands, he ran me up and asked me to come out for a drink.Dave said, "I'm Buying!"So I went! ; ) That night we met up was so much fun. Dave and I hit it off like no time had passed us by. We laughed and talked the night through. He really impressed me and I impressed him.Dave and I started dating right away and we really hit it off and re-connected with each other. In fact, the connection was even stronger than ever. It led us to blending our lives together and after 3 years of being with each other, we bought our first home and moved in April 17th 2015.Surprisingly, shortly after we just moved into our new home, Dave comes home from work April 23rd 2015, with a ring and a speech… "New Home, New Life, New Wife!!?? Will you marry me Anne-Marie?"With tears in my eyes and overwhelmed with joy, I replied "YES!"With this story comes a celebration of our new lives together on September 24th 2016. … XODave and Anne-Marie
