Our Wedding

Our story starts in 2020 when everything was put on pause and the only way to talk and meet new people was online. Ben was in Odessa, TX for work and I was finishing my associates in Hobbs, NM when we both decided to get on Bumble and both thought each other to be pretty cute. Mind you Ben's profile picture was of him at a wedding looking very dapper... there were not a lot of barbers open in 2020. We met at a park in Hobbs and I brought my younger sister (just in case, I had to bring a witness) it was the most public place that was open. I remember picking out a cute shirt and curling my hair and Ben was sure to put on his best turquoise shorts with his matching purple and turquoise Alice in Wonderland socks. Talking to Ben we began to realize how much we had in common and how hilarious we found each other. We laughed and ate food truck tacos that we still get every time we visit Hobbs. By the end we both could not stop smiling and Kimber even mentioned how much she liked him which was a big deal for her because she did not like any of my ex boyfriends. We continued to have mini dates until Ben got moved to Santa Fe, NM. I decided to tell Ben that I enjoyed baking and did it quite often (I believe I had only baked 5 times in my life at this point) he told me how he loved apple pies, of course I had never made a pie before but I was up for the challenge. The day before I drove to Santa Fe I bought everything to make an apple pie and decided to embark on this challenge with my mom who laughed and told me good luck. I do believe Ben's exact words were "best apple pie ever" I then proceeded to tell him that if he wanted to ask me to be his girlfriend again this time I would say yes. We then started our relationship as being long distance which was a challenge to us both however we were able to go on many adventures together and Ben's job brought us to places we would have never considered going to before. We supported each other through all of the moves, nursing school, and all of the other challenges life threw at us until finally in 2024 we were able to move to Oklahoma and be together. Oklahoma was not my first choice however it has brought us such amazing memories and friendships. In November 2024 Ben planned a beautiful trip to Turner falls, he hired a photographer, planned it so that my family could surprise me there, and chose a stunning cabin all so that he could propose. We have 5 years of our story to share and we cannot wait for the many more years of stories we will create together. Thank you to everyone who plans to share in one of the biggest plot points to our story, we love you all!

Thank you Bumble
