Our story goes back to 2016. We met on a dating app, where Bryan's profile photo included his one-year-old dog, Ella - an immediate draw for Mary.😍 After a couple weeks of talking to each other, we met up for ice cream in downtown Monrovia, California and never looked back.

​

One year later, we embarked on a new journey together and moved to Flagstaff, Arizona. We have spent the last six years building our lives and careers in the ponderosa pines, navigating a global pandemic, supporting one another through life's ups and downs, and never missing an opportunity to pet dogs we see in public.

​

In November 2022, we moved into our new home and adopted Sammy, our second dog. We love our family and the life we've built together, and we can't wait to join our lives together in marriage on our 8-year anniversary. ❤️
