In High School Courtney and Ezekiel both went to Pinecrest High – they even rode the same bus – but day after day they passed by in orbit of each other without ever connecting.
It wasn’t until after Courtney moved away after high school to attend college that the couple really “met”, of all places, online.
While playing World of Warcraft online their personalities just clicked. When Courtney came back home for a break from school they went to the movies with some mutual friends, sat next to each other, and from there starting talking on the phone regularly after Courtney went back to school.
Their first solo date, also at the movies, consisted of Ezekiel good naturally teasing Courtney for laughing at inappropriate times during the movie. Little did he know it was because she was so nervous.
Time passed and they knew deep down that they were meant for each other, now it was just a matter of making it official. Ezekiel asked Courtney’s mom for her great grandmother’s ring in secret and had it restored for her. After one failed proposal attempt in Gaitlinburg, TN (the ring wasn’t ready in time) Ezekiel finally popped the question while they were on a birthday trip to Myrtle Beach. He used the incredibly clever tactic of distracting Courtney with Pokeman Go while he pulled out the ring and of course she said yes!
I asked Courtney what her favorite thing about them as a couple was and this is what she said. “While we have many things in common, our personalities are opposites in almost every way and we compliment each other perfectly. Where I am indecisive, uptight and reserved, he is decisive, laid back and outgoing.”
I love that you both found your perfect other half and your 305 Trackside wedding could not have been any more beautiful!
