Our love story randomly began at Applebees back in 2012. We first crossed paths during a mutual friend's birthday dinner. Craig introduced himself and some flirtatious banter began over a shared 2 for $20 dinner meal. Even though our chemistry was undeniable phone numbers weren't exchanged that night because Craig was actually on a date. Fast forward to 3 weeks later we saw each other AGAIN, but this time at ANOTHER mutual friend's birthday party. The fact that we had so many mutual friends and never seen each other before was weird, but to randomly run into each other at two separate birthday events was even weirder. The night played out in a great group setting, but for one reason or another it ended once AGAIN without a number exchange.

Craig refused to pass up another opportunity to shoot his shooot and as soon as he saw our mutual friend tag Tamika in her "thank you for coming" post on Twitter that was all the ammo he needed and...IT WENT DOWN IN THE DM!!

After discovering a mutual love of travel, cheesecake, and late night convos the rest is history. 7 years worth of memories later we've traveled the world together, experienced family loss, and became parents of a 8month old puppy.

After 2 years of engagement ( and planning procrastination!), the time is right for us to officially tie the knot, and we couldn't be more excited.
