Our Wedding

It all began on a chilly St. Patrick’s Day night in Akron, Ohio. Megan and Ben were at the same party, surrounded by green shirts, good vibes, and the warm glow of a backyard bonfire. Across the flames, their eyes me (cue the romantic music) and Ben, never one to miss a moment, struck up a conversation. Sparks flew (and not just from the fire). It wasn’t long before they planned a first date… then a second… then a third… and, well, you know how this story goes. One bonfire, a few great dates, and a whole lot of laughter later—here we are, getting ready to say&nbsp;forever.
