We met at our mutual friend's wedding in 2023 - Amelia was assigned to arrange Ryan's family's tray of flowers, Ryan was assigned to keep the drinks coming. By the time the music started we had argued about three songs, the correct way to fold a napkin, and the entire plot of a movie neither of us had seen.

Three years and four cross-country flights later, we are bringing both families home for the kind of week we have been daydreaming about since we were nine. Bring an empty stomach. Bring an open dance floor. Bring tissues - there will be at least one speech from her mother that ruins us all.
