They knew they did not want a big traditional wedding. To plan something small, special and that would be about them, their love for each other it would represent who they are together. They both love to travel and so made the decision to plan a ceremony somewhere new. It was important to find a location that neither of them had visited before. They chose Portugal because it’s a place they talked about wanting to travel to when first started dating three years ago.

The dating app three years ago worked for both newly transplanted in Memphis, TN. They both moved to Memphis for new jobs, moving from Oregon and from Nashville. That one month was amazing though, so they decided to continue dating long distance. The next two years traveling back and forth from New Orleans, LA to Memphis, TN and then Dallas, TX to Memphis, TN to be together. Last July, 2018 they made the decision to move to Washington, DC together and continue the story. It was in D.C. that they knew they were ready for the next step and so began planning the marriage together.
