Joseph and I have been in a relationship for almost 4 1/2 years now. It's quite a funny story how we met. It all started around February 2005. I was going through a very stressful time and everyone knows I was the least interested in dating anyone at the time. My sister's fiance (Matt)at the time new of a friend that was looking for a roommate who had just at the last minute decided he was moving at the same time he knew rent was due. Also, at this time I was living with a friend and things started to not go as planned. Next thing I knew, I was also looking for a place to rent, but because I was under 21 and no credit history; noone would let me rent an apartment. But what I did not know is that God had a better plan in store for me.So one night Matt called his friend (Joseph) and asked if he minded having a girl roommate. Joseph, of course, said no problem. I moved in two days later. Joseph and I as roommates spent a lot of time around each other. The next thing we both knew is that there was more of a connection there than either one of us ever thought. We started dating one month after I moved in and we have been together ever since. Joseph has changed my life in so many ways that I can not even begin to explain what my life would be like without him. I am as happy now as I think I will ever be.

So far our wedding plans are as follows: We plan to get married on a cruise on November 17, 2009 before the ship departs. We will have about an hour and 1/2 for reception and then the ship will depart and our honeymoon begins. There is a maximum of 20 guests that can attend, so if you plan on bringing someone please inform us before doing so because this is a small family wedding.

We would love for everyone to attend this special day with us. Joseph and I also have an online registry which we will be giving out notices to everyone. Please help us have the best honeymoon ever. Every gift is accepted.
