Our Wedding

<p>Ivana and Michael met and started dating in January of 2024. Their first date took place at a Mexican restaurant. They had an amazing first date, with constant conversation and endless laughter. Ivana was thrilled when Michael asked her to go on a second date, which took place at a movie theater. After the movie they walked around the mall, where Michael decided he wanted to purchase a pair of Vans, just like the ones Ivana already had on. At the end of the date, Michael drove Ivana home, where he told her that he loved her. Ivana responded with "alright, bye". That was the beginning of their love story which has led them to their wedding day on August 29, 2026.</p>
