Our Wedding

See? He's Her Lobster. 

Mike and Brianna have been friends since 2009, when they both met in college, although neither of them could tell you exactly where or how they met, they'll both tell you that they have no idea, somewhere along they just became friends.Mike was in school "studying" to become a Phys. Ed teacher and Brianna in school to become an Art teacher, neither of them did indeed become teachers. Many of their mutual friends in school, and outside of school often wondered if the pair were dating, and people who didn't know them often mistook the two for a couple. The friends would laugh it off, and sometimes play the part for a joke, or save the other if needed but that was about as far as it would go except of course for "the contract". You see, both made a pact back then on a napkin that if they were both single and 40 that they would just marry each other, but just friends is where it would stay for 9 years.Mike in Ripley NY, and Brianna in Buffalo NY, the pair would keep in contact and meet and catch up when they could, though they would develop separate lives and relationships after college, they never stopped checking in on one another and were always there for each other, always ending the conversation with an "I love you".Fast forward to 2017/2018 both Brianna and Mike's lives would change in pretty big ways, and once again the friends would reunite to help one another heal and grow, this time however they decided to grow as a couple.Brianna would move out to Ripley NY, and by December 2019, Mike would propose to Brianna in their kitchen with Gavin assisting right before they would walk into their surprise 30th Birthday Party/ Suprise Engagement party to celebrate with friends and family.The pair has gone through a lot as individuals, as friends, and as a couple, and they wouldn't want to walk through this life with anyone else and they cannot wait to start their journey together as husband and wife!
