We first met in Pre-Calculus class in Fall 2009, our junior year of high school. A random table assignment quickly turned into a friendship, and by the summer before senior year, we were dating.
(Scroll down for some legendary hairstyles from Senior Prom and Snowball.)

After graduation, we went our separate ways for college—Becca to Portland, OR, and Michael to Nashville, TN. Fast-forward to April 2020: Michael “just happened” to order tinctures, teas, and salves from Becca’s herbal apothecary online. He insists he was just supporting a woman-owned small business during the pandemic. To this day, he’s still not exactly sure what he ordered.

Michael proposed in December 2024 with a scavenger hunt through our most meaningful spots in Denver (naturally, complete with a color-coded spreadsheet and rhyming limericks), ending with a surprise family dinner at our favorite Spanish tapas restaurant, 9th Door.

Thank you for being part of our 16-year journey of friendship and love.
We can’t wait to celebrate our next adventure—tying the knot—with all of you!
