From the moment Ryan and Mina met, there was an undeniable spark between them, though they did their best to pretend it was just a friendly fire. Meeting at a young age and creating a friendly relationship, they downplayed their mutual attraction. They'd laugh it off, pretend it wasn't there, but deep down, they both knew they were doomed.

Without any intentions of making anything serious, they decided to throw caution to the wind and give this whole relationship thing a shot. Fast forward to long-distance land. Mina was buried under a mountain of textbooks, while Ryan was off conquering the high seas with the Navy. Did distance stop them from keeping the flame alive? Heck no! They were like the Romeo and Juliet of Facetime calls ;).

Through thick and thin, they supported each other, whether it was acing exams or surviving navy dive school. They celebrated each other's victories and commiserated over the epic fails.

They grew together and enjoyed every moment they had. It finally came to the ultimate test: moving in together. It became a new adventure and one that made them realize they never wanted to be apart again. Ryan then tested if "she's the one" by climbing a 14,439 ft. tall mountain and dropping a knee. Mina made it and got the ring.

Now, they're living in their first home, traveling the world, and building a life filled with love, laughter, and a healthy dose of competition. Sure, they may have started out as "just" friends, but they've since upgraded to just two best friends now getting married.

As they continue on this crazy journey called life, they know one thing is for sure: they're in it together, and they wouldn't have it any other way. So here's to love, laughter, and happily ever afters—cheers!
