Our Story
Our journey began at work, where a serendipitous setup by Shannon’s manager and enthusiastic encouragement from colleagues across various departments brought us together. Initially, Shannon showed little interest, but the persistent and playful nudges from coworkers, especially Skype messages from Kaylane urging Shannon to go for a cup of coffee, gradually worked their magic. Kaylane would even make a point of coming to Shannon’s desk, where the server he ‘fixed’ just happened to be placed. He’d stroll over, grinning, saying, ‘Just checking on the server… and, by the way, when’s that coffee happening?’ Slowly but surely, those playful visits made all the difference, and a simple coffee outing turned into something much more. So here we are, proving that sometimes, all it takes to spark something amazing is a bit of persistence and a well-timed coffee break. After four years of love and companionship, we are excited to take the next step in our journey and can’t wait to celebrate our love with you on our special day.”
