Dan and Emily met over 5 years ago, after being introduced by mutual friends in Phoenix, Arizona. Living only a few blocks from each other, Dan and Emily became fast-friends, frequently enjoying evening walks, hiking Piestewa Peak, and often catching up over wine and bubbles together. Although Emily initially "friend-zoned" Dan, Dan had other plans in mind! With a little persistence, Dan's charm and wit won her over. Emily finally saw the light and Dan and Em's relationship flourished! Two years later, they got their first "fur baby", Charlie. Now they're excited to take the next steps and make their family official! Please join them on January 27th, in Cancun, Mexico, and help them celebrate the start of the rest of their lives together!

It was perfect! Dan popped the question outside our house on a cool spring evening at sunset - the sky was a rainbow of colors with hues of orange, pink, and purple coalescing over the horizon. Utilizing Charlie as the surprise ring bearer, Dan secretly hid the ring on his collar! On finding the ring while greeting Charlie, I was completely taken aback and swept off my feet! Of course I said, "YES!!!!" Giddy and thrilled, we celebrated over our favorite bottle of bubbles, chocolate covered strawberries, and a romantic dinner! I am one lucky girl!
