On June 19th, 2020 a guy walked into a bar and ordered a drink.... or at least thats how the song goes.

Briannas Perspective:

One Friday after a long week of work, Annie begged her friends to go out to their local bar. They reluctantly agreed, and what would happen would change the direction of her life forever. After going through a few dances, and with some liquid courage, Annie decided she wanted to dance to a slow song with her friend, but was quickly redirected to a shy gentleman who would quite literally sweep her off her feet. There was nothing like it.

So, after the dance, Sabrinna, aka matchmaker of the century, got Aarons Snapchat for Annie and it blossomed from there.

Our first date was walking down a beach on brisk, windy day in Michigan. This is where we talked about our lives, favorite movies, and all the crazy things in between. Our second date was even better, because this one had chips & salsa, one of my favorite delicacies! In between talking, eating, and watching The Lord Of The Rings, we danced our way right into love with one another.

Aarons Perspective:

Aaron walked into the local bar for country night as he often did. He met up with his usual friends Will and Gage. After the normal conversations he went out to the dance floor as normal to line dance and two step. However, little did he know that his life was about to change forever. Aaron was heading to see who would want to dance to "Chasin' You" by Morgan Wallen, and one of his acquaintances from the bar overheard a girl needing a partner to dance. Aaron being gladly said yes, and that started the dance between two strangers. Aaron danced through the song then asked the girl for her name. He couldnt help but think of how cute this blonde hair, blue eyed girl was. They talked and chatted throughout the night. Found out, Aarons friend Will had known this girl from their younger days. They laughed and talked the rest of the night.

The next day via snapchat (yes amateur hour here) Aaron reached back out to this girl to check that she got home safely from the bar. They talked a bit, finally he reached out, while still being timid and asked for a date. It took a couple more days for him to finally get her number. A few days later they talked deeper and got to know each other at Hacienda to talk, their first date. The laughed and talked, then went and walked along the riverwalk. From then on their paths were shared. They would continue to go to Mulligans to dance and chat all the time.

August came and they finally became official on the 27th of 2020. The rest became growing together as a couple and finding out that these two were the perfect weirdos for each other. The two challenged and pushed each other, but they grew stronger together. Each day pushing each other to be a better person than they were the day before. And finally on December 16th 2022, Aaron asked this beautiful woman to marry him. He surprised her on a winter night, which she said not to ever ask here during the holidays, to go to the local botanical garden to look at the winter Christmas Lights.. Where he knelt to the ground and couldn’t even get the words “Brianna Marie Jondle Will you marry me?” before she grabbed the ring out of his hands jumping up and down to say yes.

And that is what brought us to where we are today.
