Our Wedding

Our story is a classic 'love at first sight', but the way we met was unexpected. Even though we had been attending the same church for a year, it took some parental intervention for us two introverts to actually meet. Rachel's dad took on the role of matchmaker and introduced us one Sunday morning in January 2022. Next step - get the girl's number ... and Eric knew exactly where to find it: the church directory. About a month later on Valentines day, he texted Rachel asking if she'd like to grab coffee sometime. And that was the beginning of the rest of our lives together.
