Our Wedding

Although Brianna and Bryce had both attended Coe Brown Northwood Academy, they didn’t truly meet until their time at Nippo Lake Golf Club. Brianna was a brand-new waitress, still figuring out how not to drop a tray of drinks or mix up table numbers, and Bryce was the rare kind soul in the kitchen who didn’t mind answering her endless questions or rushing something she forgot to put into the system. They fell into an easy friendship—the kind that feels effortless from the very start. Bryce never would’ve guessed that if he fast-forwarded six years, he’d still be making Brianna dinner a few nights a week and listening to her tease him about whether he’d forgotten the pizza in the oven.After college graduation, life tugged them onto separate paths. They drifted apart, not intentionally, but in that gentle, inevitable way adulthood often allows. Still, neither ever completely forgot the other.Years later, in the strange stillness of early COVID lockdowns, they reconnected and decided on a drive-in movie for their first date—something simple, something safe, something easy. And just like that, the thread between them tightened again. Movies turned into dates, dates into long evenings of laughter and stories, and soon they realized the spark between them hadn’t vanished at all; it had simply been waiting.A couple of years later, they moved into a cozy place in Newmarket, NH, where bright morning light streamed through the windows and the town’s quiet charm felt like a soft welcome. They filled the place with plants, trying to make it feel complete, but something was still missing. That something arrived in the form of Luna—a spirited little cat with white whiskers, moon-bright eyes, and a firm belief that she owned the apartment. She quickly became their mischievous third roommate, supervising laundry, interrupting sleep, and inserting herself into every movie night.Life settled into something gentle and beautiful. And when Bryce decided it was time—truly time—he knew exactly where he wanted to ask.Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania was glowing with summer blooms the day they visited, colors spilling everywhere like a living painting. They wandered through fountains, past towering trees, through flower-lined paths that rustled softly in the warm breeze. In the Conservatory, surrounded by ferns and the earthy smell of growing things, Bryce stopped. He took a breath and dropped to one knee. Brianna turned toward him, eyes wide, and in a moment years in the making, he asked her to marry him. She said yes—with tears, laughter, and that overwhelming kind of joy that feels almost too big for a single breath.Luna, of course, was unimpressed when they returned home a few days later, mildly offended that the proposal hadn’t revolved around her. But that night, curled together on the couch with their snoring cat wedged possessively between them, Brianna and Bryce felt it—the quiet magic of a story that started in a golf course clubhouse and had carried them all the way here.And it was only the beginning.
