Ryan and Cassandra met in an entirely new and wholly unique way, at work. The pair worked along side each other with minimal interaction for almost two years. Then, after an innocent but genuine compliment from Cassie to Ryan, the two began to find small moments in their work day to get to know each other. A close friendship grew quickly into something much deeper. It went from nothing to everything.

Despite living in two completely different cities, one would traverse to the other everyday in even the most grueling weather and transit conditions. There wasn't a day that they didn't put effort into seeing each other. Finally, in January 2024, the couple moved in together and shortly thereafter they added their beloved cat, Mao Mao, to the family. Ryan proposed on the couch, she said yes, and the rest is history.

In all sincerity, the couple is incredibly thankful to everyone who will be able to join them on their momentous day; there is much love to be shared.
