It’s a classic love story, really. Two of our friends connected us via Instagram, and, after a year of admiring (stalking) each other’s photos from afar, one DM from @lt_dan blossomed into a respectable football and lunch date. After Rachel convinced him to co-manage a horrifically performing fantasy football team with her, he was emotionally invested in the outcome (of the relationship, of course). Two months, two Preds game dates, and a pair of old fashioneds later, Dillon looked over and “jokingly” (not-so-jokingly) asked “do you want to get married?”, to which Rachel quickly (cringily quickly) responded “yes”. All the other “yes”es have been just as easy.
We are simply thrilled to become Mr. & Mrs. Brackman. We’re each so thankful to have found our perfect match, and we can’t wait to start the rest of our lives together. Thank you for supporting us, loving us, and celebrating with us!
Our ceremony will be an intimate gathering on the beach with immediate family, the bridal party, and our dog, Tucker.
