Patricia + Steven | Marquette Michigan Engagement
Steve was in Ann Arbor working on a three year residency to become a periodontist when he decided to take a weekend trip and head towards the Twin Cities. His roommate from dental school was living there, and the two of them were prepared for a weekend of fun and relaxation. The one thing Steve wasn’t prepared for was meeting his roommates longtime friend from high school and college.
Enter Patricia. Or Trish, as she’s more commonly known by. Steve followed his friend into Trish’s apartment and instantly stopped in his tracks. She was tall with light sparkly eyes, and had a long crown of golden hair that would make any head turn. Their eyes met and she flashed him the most pearly white smile, while her hand made a motion to a table of food for the boys (mac+cheese, hot dogs, pretzels and ketchup was her specialty). The night rolled on into laughing and good cheer, and by the end of the weekend Steve had Trish’s number punched into his phone.
The months that followed were filled with weekend trips to see each other, sometimes in the towns they lived, but mostly in random cities and places they could both drive about halfway to. They could barely go a month without seeing one another, and their weeknights were filled with long phone conversations lasting for hours. Their dream came true when they both landed jobs in the same town in Northern Michigan. Trish packed up her dog, Gatsby, and hit the road to meet her man in their new home, ready for their happily ever after.
