Michael & Melody

our story

chapter one: “just friends”

We met in New Mexico where we worked on a ranch doing forestry conservation work. We became instant friends and started going on countless adventures.

chapter two: falling in love

Michael moved back to Virginia to attend college, and Melody followed behind, moving to Norfolk to be together. The shenanigans never stopped, and many memories were made.

chapter three: the next step

We traveled with family to Italy, and had a day alone in Lake Como where a life altering question was asked. It was the easiest “yes”, committing to each other for a life of endless fun.
