Patience, kindness, lots of laughs, shared snacks, and always showing up for each other—on purpose & with love! Plus, we’re f***ing awesome.

It started with a bit of magic… Mary-Kaitlyn was training at Magic Kingdom’s City Hall when David, solving a Guest issue, first saw her—blonde hair, bright smile. He was hooked; she thought he was a weirdo. But over time, David found every excuse to be near her. Love bloomed. Three homes, two dogs, cross-country moves, heartbreak, joy, and endless memories later—it’s been the adventure of a lifetime ever since.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Some of our favorite memories are road trips and the quality time they bring. With busy lives and demanding work, we truly cherish the moments we get to slow down together. Whether it's heading to Dollywood, exploring North Carolina, or discovering new spots, those adventures give us space to reconnect, laugh, and just be us. It’s not about the destination—it’s the time spent side by side that makes it unforgettable.
What would you do with $20,000?Just months after our wedding, Mary-Kaitlyn had back surgery, so we never got a honeymoon. With $20,000, we’d finally take that long-overdue trip to celebrate our marriage, health, and resilience - creating the memories we missed at the start!
