We met back in 2015 at Ohio University when our friend Carson (who is officiating our wedding) convinced us to skip class (sorry mom and dad!) and get coffee instead. When going our separate ways, Adam and Hunter ended up awkwardly walking in the same direction. After Hunter dropped her coffee cup and tried to ignore it, Adam decided to point it out making the situation even more awkward (for Hunter). For some reason these two people decided to go on a date.
Our first date took place in Athens, Ohio at Ohio University. The conversation consisted of Hunter talking about Disney for at least 2 hours; Adam very patiently and respectfully let her do so. He was somehow able to drop in a few sentences about sports!
We started our tradition of going to an arcade and seeing a movie!
Our first time going to a Disney park was back when Hunter worked at Disney World! Since then, we have gone to the parks a lot more. Adam's favorite ride is Pirates of the Caribbean and Hunter's is Big Thunder Mountain!
While at OU we participated in a film making class called 419 Productions. We as students made a feature film all by ourselves. This is the first film Adam was able to be the Director of Photography on, Hunter was the 2nd Assistant Director. This class would influence us to pursue a career in film making and move to Los Angeles.
After Hunter got the opportunity to be a part of OU's Ohio In LA program and Adam slept on his brother's couch in LA for two months, we decided to permanently live there. We worked together in TV Production on shows like Shark Tank, The Late Late Show with James Corden, Carpool Karaoke and more.
Hunter graduated from OU. Adam was so relieved that he didn’t have to teach her math anymore!
On the drive out to LA we stopped at the Grand Canyon and it influenced us to come up with the goal to visit all the National Parks. The second park on our list was Death Valley. This is a trip that will always stick out in our minds, as Adam almost drove us off a mountain... but that's a story for another day!
Living in California gave us the opportunity to visit a lot of parks close by. We went to Joshua Tree multiple times during our time in LA. We love this park, it's like a giant playground made of rocks. It was the perfect weekend getaway spot!
ATV ride in Canyonlands National Park. Adam was trying to find a good place and time to propose!
Adam finally found the perfect spot! The Sand Dune Arch at Arches National Park. It was also our last stop on our trip. Coincidence? Who's to say! Hunter had no idea what was going to happen and kept climbing rocks and immediately running away all weekend after she conquered the climb! (sorry Adam if I knew I would have sat still!)
After 5 years in Los Angeles we decided it was time to move back to the Midwest. We not only wanted to be closer to family but wanted to experience the cold again.. I know we're crazy!
