Our Wedding

It’s funny, you don’t know the impact someone will have on your life when you meet them in passing. Dane and I were introduced to each other in 2016 after he moved back to Reno to finish up school. After introductions we both carried on with our lives and neither of us thought much about it. It wasn’t until a few years later when we ended up at more of the same social functions that we started talking. We started dating in November 2019. Right after I asked Dane where he saw himself in 5 years. I can’t remember his exact response but it was a sarcastic answer that made me laugh while rolling my eyes. Knowing what I know now, “married to you” would have been a good response too. These last 4 years have been an a wild ride! Some of the things Dane and I have experienced together include multiple moves, buying cars, road trips, a global pandemic, and continually annoying the other person to get a that coveted response of an eye roll and the “why are you like this?.” There’s no one else I would rather spend the rest of my life with than Dane♥️

Willow’s Version

I met Willow on a cold December night during an Intervarsity weekly meeting. I did not think anything of it at the time. A couple of years later I moved into what can only be described as a "College Crack Shanty" of a house with 12-15 other guys. While living there I began to hangout more with friends that were close with friends of Willow's, and through hanging out with the same people our paths started to cross a little more frequently than they did before. We started hanging out more frequently and eventually after months and months of Willow asking me out I finally broke down and said yes. The rest is, as they say, History.

Dane’s Version

Our Story

Dane and I are very good at taking selfies and pictures. Some of them are more ridiculous than others. These are some of our favorites! PS Can you guess which one is the first selfie we took together?
