Our Wedding

On Saturday, October 12th, 2013, with no plans in mind, Micah decided to go out in Pittsburgh at just the same time that Dave decided to go out to a local pub in Shadyside. Micah stood on the other side of the room and noticed Dave. Dave was too shy to acknowledge Micah and that is when Micah decided to approach Dave. The next thing Dave knew, Micah was standing next to his left and staring at him with a smile that would never vanish. Dave blushed, looked at Micah, and struck up a conversation. This was the beginning of a conversation that would flip both of their worlds upside down!

Love at first sight...

After 4 hours of deep conversation on Saturday night, October 12, 2013, Dave and Micah made plans to meet for dinner after work just 3 days later. On Tuesday, October 15, 2013, Dave and Micah had their first date at none other than The Double Wide Grill in Cranberry. Yes, you heard it right! The classy Double Wide Grill. As Dave watched Micah walk into the Grill, Dave knew that things would never be the same. As Micah walked into the Grill and saw Dave waiting for him, Micah knew that things would never be the same.

Our First Date - How Romantic!

After spending the week in Las Vegas for a friend's wedding, Micah returned home on the evening of Saturday, October 26th, 2013. Let's just say the separation anxiety (I never said who) was through the roof! Dave and Micah talked all night long and into the early Sunday morning hours. Dave and Micah both knew that they never wanted to spend another day apart from each other. On Sunday morning, October 27, 2013, Dave and Micah decided to commit to a relationship that would forever change their lives.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder!

Since Day 1, I have loved Dave and Dave has loved me. We knew that our future would hold an engagement sooner or later (Dave was hoping sooner than later) :) After several discussions, it was decided that when the timing was perfect.. completely perfect.. I, Micah, would ask Dave for his hand in marriage. I knew that 2016 was the year that I was going to propose, but I wasn't sure when that day would happen. We decided to take a vacation out west to see our good friends, Jeff and Christine (Kiz) Demarais, while visiting the states of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. Jeff and Kiz live in Washington but have roots in Portland, Oregon. After extensive planning and mapping out the trip with Jeff, I knew that I had several great options where to propose to Dave so I decided I would keep the ring in my pocket all week (not the best idea but it worked out). On Day 4 of our trip (May 30, 2016), it happened! I got down on one knee on the side of Mt. Hood, Oregon's tallest mountain standing 11,249 feet high. I never imagined that I would be proposing in the snow in the month of May, especially with flip flops on, but it was perfect and Dave was definitely taken by surprise! Thank you, Jeff, for being on standby with the camera for 4 long, anxious days waiting to capture the moment!
