Zach's Side of the Story... :)

Believe it or not, I wooed Nikki with my dancing ability! Seriously, I am not lying! We first started dating after we went swing dancing a couple of times. I never thought my dancing ability would help me meet the most amazing woman in the world, but God really does have a sense of humor! We proceeded to date, and it was amazing to see how God had been working in each of our lives since before we had even met. We actually first met each other at an adoration event in the fall beforehand, but both of us needed to work on our relationship with God before starting a relationship together. When we did start dating, it was amazing to see how our prayers for our future spouse were helping each of us throughout our entire lives. While dating, it became so incredibly clear that Nikki and I are called to marry each other, and when you know, you know so why wait! I asked Nikki to marry me on our third month anniversary, the proposal was incredibly romantic, ;) and now I get to enter into the sacrament of marriage with the most amazing, God loving Woman in the World! I am so blessed and so incredibly pumped!

Nikki's Side of the Story! :)

Zach and I met through the young adult group my sister and I helped to start, which just proves that God works in mysterious ways! :) Although Zach and I knew each other at surface level for a while, our story didn't really begin until one memorable Young Adult event when I taught him how to swing dance. And despite what he says, I'm the one who taught HIM how to swing dance! :) After finishing my 3rd annual 54-day rosary novena for my future husband to grow in virtue and in his relationship with God, the Lord surprised me by bringing the most incredible man into my life! In fact, it was on the last day of the novena that I was a little sassy with God and asked Him to have my future husband walk through the door of the Adoration chapel… and just then, Zach walked in! After swing dancing together a few times, I was so excited to get a phone call from him to ask me on a date at my favorite restaurant, Mongo's! It didn't take long for both of us to realize that we were called to marriage, and three months and many memorable walks around Lake George later (one incredibly memorable walk in particular!), I had the honor of saying yes when he asked me to be his wife at Lake George at sunset! I am so excited to be marrying my best friend and to help each other run toward Heaven together!
