Wedding Date on Oct 19, 2019

It was a white out in the city and I had the day off from work. My coworker Carlos called me to let me know that the bank was closing early and I should come in to the city to party. I called my best man Ricky and we made the short trek from Jersey. A few hours later my cousin Jake called and told us to come down to the Lower East Side to this unappealing, fratty bar called Hair of the Dog. Much to my chagrin, we caved and showed up to find the bar nearly empty except for a few bros playing beer bong and drinking $5 pitchers. It was a little while later when I first saw Hannah and her crew walk in loud as ever, causing a scene. Eventually, Han and I locked eyes and I could tell there were sparks. Waiting to make my move, I finally got my chance when Hannah started shaking her tail feather on the empty dance floor all by herself. I told my friends "I have to go help this girl," as I made my way towards her. We danced and we laughed and she stood by as my "lucky charm" as I played a few games of pong. Before leaving with her sister, Hannah put her number in my phone as "Hannah (with a smooch)" and it’s been that way ever since. The next day was Valentine’s Day and I decided to refrain from calling any of the ladies I had been seeing. I waited a few more days before calling Hannah and she agreed to meet up later that day. My boy Benny told me to join him before for some super cheap drinks at this fun little bar he had heard of called…Hair of the Dog. What can I say? I couldn’t pass up the insanely cheap pitchers and I decided to join him while I waited for Hannah to finish whatever it was she was doing. As time went by, Hannah and I texted trying to decide where we should meet. At first, I was hesitant to let her know I was in the fine establishment we had met just days before, but found it hysterical when she let me know she was also in there, just on the other side of the bar. What was more amusing was watching as she approached another group of guys just a few feet away from us. I guess she had her beer goggles on tight a few days before… Eventually, she saw me grinning from my spot at the bar and ran over to the man of her dreams ;)
