Our Wedding

Morgan and Luis coincidentally moved to Washington, DC, in 2018, with hopes and dreams of doing great things (and we have!). Morgan moved to DC from Boston after graduating from Tufts University, and Luis moved from Florida to DC to complete his education in ASL Interpreting at Gallaudet University. Destiny might not have brought them together, but volleyball did. Morgan has been playing volleyball since she was 11 years old, and she brought that passion to DC. Luis... well, he was a bit younger. He was 4 years old when he started the sport, but like Morgan, the love for the sport never faded. Now you might think... Wow! I bet they met playing volleyball in a heated match filled with sweat, blood, and tears. I would say that you are reading too many spicy romance novels. Morgan and Luis met one fateful night on March 11, 2022. Luiss dear friends, Sam and Cat, invited Luis to a rock concert. After the concert, the trio decided to continue the good vibes and go out dancing at Café Saint-Ex on 14th Street. Morgan and her friends went out on a night of celebration for Hanah’s promotion, which led them to get dinner and then hit the dance floor at Café Saint-Ex. This is where the stories diverge just a tad... If you ask Luis when he walked in, he saw Morgan from across the room and knew he had to go talk to her. If you ask Morgan, Luis was too chicken to go talk to her. Morgan did approach Luis, and they fell in love, and thats where the story ends... right? The story did not end there. Morgan approached Luis and asked him, Do you play volleyball? Luis looked at his attire and, with a puzzled look, asked, How do you know? With quick wit, Morgan replied back with We beat your team twice! and with that, Morgan stole Luis’s heart. Little did Luis know Morgan was not really interested in him, but Luis, being an international Casanova and a great dancer, was able to steal Morgans heart, and they danced the night away! Like they say in stories, the rest is history!

Pass, Set and Fall in love!
