Our story is pretty funny. We met at a fraternity party through metal friends. I agreed to be Dan's date for an upcoming fraternity formal event just so I could go and enjoy the night with my friends who were dating other guys in Phi Kappa Psi. After a couple of months a few Facebook messages later, I agreed to go on an official date with Daniel. He asked me what my favorite food was and jokingly i answered, chicken nuggets and mac n cheese. So.. the following week I show up at Dan's house and there he is, cooking chicken nuggets and mac n cheese for me. We sat in the kitchen listening to Kenny Chesney and enjoying each other's company. After dinner, we put on a movie but spent more time talking and laughing with each other. 

The first date

The proposal

We went to Las Vegas in Aug of 2016 and I joked with Daniel the whole trip about eloping there. I was hoping at the point he would realize that I was serious about getting married. Dan and I both love Christmas. Ever since we started dating we would both look forward to the holiday. I remember our first Christmas together, we would put on Mariah Carey's 'All I Want for Christmas is You' and dance around the house. Christmas of 2016--Dan and I are on the tail end of our Christmas celebrations at hi dad's house and he and I are both outside standing next to the fire place. Micheal Buble's version of 'All I want for Christmas' starts playing in the background and Daniel grabs me, brings me close, then its down on one knee with the most beautiful ring in hand.
