Wedding Date on Jul 29, 2018

Ryan and I met as students in college. We were both studying music education at the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University. We had been friends for a while before I noticed that Ryan was staying at the library or the music building as late as I was studying to walk me home. He would text me along with a group of friends to organize meals at the dining hall just so that he could spend time with me. Eventually, I asked if he wanted to go to a concert at our school and then go star gazing afterwards. We have been inseparable ever since! Ryan proposed 4 years later at the end of a beautiful walk through the Rutgers Gardens. He had asked a friend to scope out the location ahead of time to find a place for her to hide and take candid photos while he proposed, but I got in the way and asked to come along with them to "get bubble tea," which I now know was the excuse to go scope out the location. She ended up coming 10 minutes after the proposal to take staged photos. We all got bubble tea afterwards!
