You never know when you are one decision away from completely changing your life path. This was true for Patricia and Micheal, who had each dreamed of finding someone special to share their life with. Their paths had previously crossed at an old job they had both worked at where Micheal says Patricia first caught his eye. Though they often shared small talk, nothing more ever came from their conversations at this time.

Soon Patricia decided to relocate to Buffalo, New York. With the distance now between them, Micheal decided to visit Patricia and offered to take her out for coffee to catch up. Patricia agreed and they made plans to meet. It just so happened the day Micheal arrived in Buffalo there was a terrible snowstorm. The weather couldn’t stop this knight in shining armor as he braved the bad weather, and made true on his word to meet her for coffee. From the very first sip of Dunkin Donuts coffee, Patricia and Micheal enjoyed the great conversation and could feel that this meeting was the start of something special. As Patricia said, “It was the best cup of coffee I ever had!”

When we asked this loving couple when they knew marriage was the next chapter in their love story, they both shared beautiful words about each other. Micheal shared, “I wanted to honor and respect Patricia. Patricia is a woman of honesty, integrity, and goodwill. I love her and I can see myself with Patricia for the rest of my life.” Patricia shared, “Mike is a loving, caring, and intelligent man who I do love very much. He supports me in anything that I do and his presence enhances me. I want our relationship to be blessed.”

In their free time, Patricia and Micheal enjoy traveling and dancing together. They like to stay active by going to the gym, walking, and exercising. They also enjoy relaxing nights that include cuddling, watching their favorite series on Hulu., and taking care of each other.

Above everything else, Patricia and Micheal value honesty, trust, family, and God.
