Our story began when Brian came to visit his good friend Jordan Emmer at Mizzou. Little did Brian know, Jordan wasn't just a great friend—he was also someone Mel had grown close to during her time at college. Mel often hung out with Jordan on many college weekends, so naturally Brian and she crossed paths. Though she initially didn't think much of it (Brian, on the other hand, was quite taken).

Fast forward a few years, and Mel made the bold move to Chicago. Brian had already been living there for about a year. With his infatuation for Mel still burning strong, Brian managed to find his way into spending more time with her. After persistently asking her out, Mel finally agreed, and that was when she discovered her own feelings blossoming.

Their story started with random meetings, a spontaneous move to Chicago, and Brian's persistent efforts to hang out with Mel. Through it all, their connection deepened into something special that we're so excited to celebrate today.
