Our Wedding

Jeff and Madison both swiped right on not one, not two, but THREE different dating apps on each other. With Madison's busy school schedule and Jeff being away out of the state for trainings for work, they never arranged a first date... A couple months passed, and one day Jeff had a notification from Snapchat to "Add Madison as a friend on Snap!" So he did just that... He wrote Madison a friendly "Hey, how are you doing?" After rekindling, the two quickly scheduled a long awaited first date. Immediately after the first date, both exchanged texts of "wow that was the best first date we've ever been on". From that moment on, the two have been inseparable (even through a 6 month deployment!) Jeff said I love you pretty early on into the relationship, with Madison needing some time to come around. When Madison finally said "I love you", he ran around the house screaming "She loves me! She really really loves me!" Then their relationship took off full speed ahead, moving in together, dog-parenting Brutus, and planning for a beautiful, adventurous, laugh-filled life together. Madison was waiting, and waiting, and waiting for a proposal. She knew it would happen, but did not know how or when! Jeff knowing this, had lots of fake-outs with getting down on one knee. From tying his shoe or opening a christmas stocking, he had faked Madison out on when the actual proposal was happening. Madison suggested they go out for date night on April 7th as it would be the last day off of the school year. Jeff took Madison to RA Sushi, where they had their first date. Madison made a comment of, "Oh, wouldn't it be cute if you proposed to me where we had our first date?" Jeff laughed it off and they ate their sushi. Once they got the check, Madison was sure the proposal was NOT happening. So when Jeff got on one knee outside of the restaurant where they had their first kiss, Madison thought it was a prank, so she pushed Jeff over and would not stop talking. It wasn't until she stopped talking for one whole second and she saw the beautiful ring that she realized-- it was actually happening, and Jeff was proposing! Their proposal story perfectly encapsulates the fun these two have together, making it absolutely "them". Now, they cannot wait to join their hands in marriage and share an amazing evening full of fun and joy with their family and friends. They also are so excited to live their lives with so much happiness, laughter, and adventure.
