Happy Wedding Week to the first Dearly Loved couple of 2021! ✨
We can’t wait to celebrate with Magan and Griffin this weekend!
Check out their love story below!
“Griffin and I were students at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. One morning I had woken up unsure if I wanted to attend class that day. After an hour of being indecisive, I finally decided to get up and go. I walked to class, thinking it was going to be a normal day. Boy, was I wrong. I never knew I was going to find the love of my life by going to class. I walked into my building, and I accidentally hit someone with the door when they were coming out. I turned to say sorry, but I saw the guy that I hit was checking me out. At that point, I thought "what a creep!". I turned back around and just went to class. Upon arriving in class, I sat down and started talking to my friends when I heard my phone go off. I checked it, and it said, "Griffin Blake added you as a friend". I added him back, knowing in my gut he was the guy I had just hit with the door. That thought was confirmed after he messaged me. I ignored him for a while, just for the fun of keeping him waiting. Finally, I opened his message and responded. Class had ended, and I headed to the library to study. After that, I did not really talk to him much, because I was so focused on what I was doing. When I got to the library, I got my Starbucks, and I went to sit down. I was in the library for two and a half hours. After I got done at the library, I packed my stuff up and headed out. I opened the door to go outside, and little did I know that Griffin was going to come by at that time. I hit him with the door, again, and was so embarrassed that I scurried out of his sight. He sent me another message that said, "two times in one day?". We continued to talk throughout the day, and I ended up going to his baseball game that night. The rest is history!”
