Daniela & Ramsey’s story began almost two decades ago attending Arabic School every Sunday with their other Lebanese friends here in the Triangle. They spent all of their childhood and most of their early adulthood as just friends, dancing together on the Lebanese Dabke Team, going to community events, and hanging out around Raleigh with their people! After graduating college in 2016, Ramsey moved down to South Carolina, and it wasn’t until he moved back to the Raleigh area in 2019 that their spark ignited.

Ramsey always had googly eyes for Daniela (and vice versa wink wink), but he recalls the exact moment he knew for a fact that she was the girl for him…

He had just returned from his two-month trip oversees where he hiked across Lebanon and Daniela had just finished her 3 rd year of college at NC State University, and they both happened to be attending the same summer concert at Red Hat Amphitheater in downtown Raleigh. They say that you don’t find your person until you stop looking and that’s exactly how things went down for Daniela & Ramsey. There they were, dancing blissfully in the rain, unconditionally hoping that the other was having the time of their life, just as friends, however, something changed between them that night and Ramsey realized that he would never again think of Daniela as “just a friend”.

From that moment on, they started spending A LOT more time together which eventually culminated in Ramsey mustering up enough courage to ask Daniela out to dinner at Brewery Bhavana, which became one of their favorite dinner spots in Raleigh. Their date couldn’t have been any more perfect and when it was time for them to part ways at the end of the night, they FINALLY told each other how they really felt, and thankfully, their feelings were mutual! After only a couple months of them dating, the world unfortunately took a turn for the worse when

the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

COVID, although terrible in so many ways, was a blessing in disguise for Daniela & Ramsey’s relationship. When so many were isolating in their homes away from other humans, Daniela & Ramsey were isolating with each other, spending their days cooking yummy vegan food, going on hikes together at Umstead Park (with Zedd of course), and chasing sunsets at Falls Lake where Ramsey eventually proposed in August of 2021.

Since then, they’ve purchased a house together in Garner, NC, and have begun to slowly but surely turn that house into a home which they plan on moving into together after their wedding. They are BEYOND excited for their big day and can’t wait to create precious memories with their beloved guests who they are so incredibly thankful for!
