David & I originally met in the seventh grade. He was your average goofy guy and me being the weird girl I am we quickly became friends. I kept in contact with David all through high school, and very briefly in college. Post college, my best friend persuaded me to download Tinder. Not a smart idea, but in this case it gave me my forever. Three swipes in and I suddenly have a match. David messaged me right away; realized we had each others numbers and started texting. Early mornings then turned into the gym, coffee, and Sunday Church. Our first date was spent at Disneyland and ended at the beach. I remember getting home with a smile plastered on my face. Later that week my mom found my middle school graduation photo, when we realized David somehow was captured in the same photo as me. I immediately thought of those love stories when soulmates are found in the same photo, years later. Fast forward those weekly dates turned into the keys to our new apartment, and soon after our engagement. God truly handcrafted this man for me and I am so blessed that he brought two long-time friends together to become husband & wife. You have made me a woman of patience, a woman of virtue, and a woman that knows real love. I love you most Davey.

After being friends for 6 years, through middle school and high school we lost connection throughout college. I eventually reconnected with Sam after graduating college on a dating app. We both were shocked to even see each other on there and kept joking about it, but I think we were just making up stuff to keep chatting. We would continue chatting and reconnecting after the 4 year gap we had knowing one another. We then decided to meet up for coffee and from that point on we saw a real connection and wanted to try a real date. We would go to Disney and the beach, and I would introduce her to my family and when she met my family I knew I wanted Sam in my life for good. We would have adventures, night drives, be food critics, and soon move in together. I knew before we moved in I wanted to propose, but after fully moving in and seeing every side and aspect of Sam I was even more excited to propose and make her the one. Now after a magical grand canyon helicopter ride under the sunset and the proposal only in fairytales, we are engaged and will be each others always. I love you Sam
