The story begins at an unconventional location, during an unconventional time. Downtown Sudbury, St. Patrick's Day 2015. This is where Michael would make a "splash" in Merritt's life by spilling his drink on her. Little did they know this was an ugly precursor to a beautiful love story.

With the help of a certain cousin *cough* Marissa *cough* both Merritt and Michael would find themselves dancing around one another. Each twirl strengthening their bond and building a love they could of never imagined.

Texts became letters, words became promises, and with a few more spilled drinks..girlfriends became fiancés. On October 15, 2022 Michael would propose to Merritt, opening the gates to the next chapter of their lives, one they are so happy to have you join them in.
