Our Story
We first saw each other in August 2007. We were both out with friends and noticed one another from across the room. We smiled and then went about our evenings. Brandon and I did that every two months until March 2008 when we officially met. Brandon came over to me and introduced himself. We spoke briefly and then he left. A week later we saw each other again and ended up talking for a few hours. Brandon had been stuck in my mind for the past seven months as we'd seen each other, so I was pretty excited that I was finally getting to know who he was. He took me on our first date a week later and we've been together ever since. We went to Le Bistro in Corvallis (great food and a great date if anyone is looking for somewhere to go). We got engaged on my birthday almost a year later. We had planned to go snowshoeing on Mt. Hood that day, and had gone up to his parents house the night before. I just thought we were going to do something fun, get away from home and enjoy the snow. We have two Alaskan Malamutes who love the snow, so we brought them along as well. Brandon and I were about an hour and a half into our hike when we decided to take a break, and figure out our next move. Brandon took that moment to propose in the middle of the snow! It was awesome...and I am fairly certain he thought I was going to tackle him. We are planning our wedding for August 2009. I think a lot of our family and friends were surprised we wanted to plan a wedding that soon, but there were some special circumstances that made it important to plan something sooner or later. Brandon and I both value our family and friends very highly, and we wanted to make sure that everyone was able to attend. We have a wedding website through ewedding.com, which has been a great way to put our information out there for our family and friends, share photos and update our wedding party. We have become pretty good at planning such a big and special event in a short amount of time.
