Annette Patton and Ryan Brown's Wedding Website

Ryan's side of the story: when he moved to Fort Collins for grad school in 2015, his coworker Tess asked him if he wanted to go on a camping trip to climb a mountain. He likes being outside so he went. Annette's side of the story: Tess, Krista, and Annette had been friends in Colorado for a while. One evening in September, the three ladies had a few beers and started gossiping about school, adventures, and Annette's love life. With a gleam in her eye, Tess told Annette "I have a new office-mate this year. He's pretty cute and he seems nice. I think you should meet him! Come camping with us this weekend!" Tess urged. She had high hopes for this match. Annette, mostly excited about friends, lazy campfires, and a day hike or two, eagerly agreed. The weekend: Turns out, a weekend camping trip with Tess & Co. means summiting the two tallest peaks in Colorado back to back. "She's cute," Ryan thought when they met in his driveway. "Don't be creepy," Annette told herself. After awkwardly not talking in the car on the drive, Annette chased him up both mountains and they managed not to talk very much at all. However, they both discovered that they love brussels sprouts.
