Our Wedding

&nbsp;They say the greatest relationships start with a strong friendship, and that's exactly how it happened for Devin and Imani. They met as they both started their careers in Student Affairs at Texas Christian University in June of 2015. Devin had recently accepted a position working in Fraternity & Sorority Life and Imani working in Housing & Residence Life. Imani happened to be coming to TCU along with a good friend from grad school, Evan Konecky. Devin and Evan would be coworkers in the same office. &nbsp;It was late one night and Imani was hanging out at Evan's house when Devin drove into town from Tucson. Evan had the keys to Devin's new apartment so Imani and Evan headed out to greet her in the parking lot that spanned between Devin and Evan's apartments. Now if you know Devin, you’ll believe it when you hear that she firmly turned down their offer to help her unload all of her belongings from the car. You’ll also believe it when you hear that she was struggling to get into her apartment and called them back over swearing they had given her the wrong key, only to find out that she went to the wrong door. After this brief hiccup, they all went their separate ways for the night. What they didn't know at the time was how good of friends they would all become. As transplants to the area, these co-workers would all become like family in their new state of Texas. The following day Evan and Imani invited Devin out to get some food...they took her to Fuzzy's Tacos. To this day Imani is suprised Devin didn't stop talking to them after that since the food was not very good, especially for someone who has very high standards for Mexican food. &nbsp;Fast forward a bit and Devin and Imani have become close friends through sharing experiences like exploring their new city, building furniture for their new apartments, and going out on the town with their #Squad. Devin recalls one night in particular when they went to a sports bar called Landmark after a kickball game. The song “Uptown Funk” by Bruno Mars came on and Imani got Devin up and dancing in between him working the room and meeting all of the strangers in sight. This sparked a definite crush for Devin! By October of 2015 they realized they both were interested in one another beyond just friendship and started to spend even more time together. They took their time getting to know each other and eased into their relationship over the next 6 months or so. 

&nbsp;It became exceedingly obvious that this relationship was special. Over the next few years, they really invested in one another and prepared their relationship for marriage. This season of dating also brought many adventures for the couple including: Vacations to Denver, LA, Hogwarts, Lake Lanier to meet the Cuse’ Cohort, Italy, France, and trips to Chicago, Tucson, and San Diego to meet each other’s families.&nbsp; Nursing Devin through a foot surgery and 12 week recovery time A booming cocktail mixology hobby for Imani Becoming HGTV connoisseurs and even creating their own House Hunters experience with a date to visit several open houses Moving Devin three times in one year A few baseball stadium tours to add to Imani’s collection The first ever Wimberly Week - a week of surprises and dates to celebrate Mr. Wimberly (side note: the anniversary of Wimberly Week happens to coincide with the wedding!) Starting an amateur garden Becoming Costco regulars (seriously, they should own stock in Costco) Getting engaged! &nbsp;There was a connection there that neither of them had ever felt with anyone else before. They began to talk about what next steps would look like for them. Devin and Imani invested a lot of effort into preparing themselves for someday seeking marriage. They would constantly send each other articles about successful marriages and discuss them with one another. They put a lot of work into how they communicate with one another. Being able to understand each other was at the top of the list and grew significantly in the ways they loved each other from all the work invested. &nbsp;As with most jobs, there are seasons that are busier than others. For Devin and Imani, it is the start of each semester. In the spring semester in 2018, they noticed that they would have just one day off together in over 2 months. They planned to make the most of this day with a date together in Dallas. Who would have known, February 3, 2018, would have become one of the most important days in their life? The day they sealed their future together and agreed to get married. Imani proposed at Reunion Tower in Dallas after a day date consisting of a trip to a farmers market, visiting a museum, and cocktails in the Bishop Arts neighborhood. These two could not be happier as they plan their wedding that will bring all their favorite people to the place that brought them together!
