OUR LOVE STORY

Ryan and Sophia met in 2021 at the most romantic of places.... Xavier University's  famous bar "Dana Gardens." Ryan quickly swept Sophia off of her feet -- quite literally as they danced in the rain the first night they met. They both graduated from the Xavier Theatre Department and are both still involved in theatre today. Three years later they got engaged in the most common and ordinary way possible. Ryan serenaded Sophia in front of 400 people by singing Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You" after his performance of Jersey Boys -- let's just say Ryan loves to show off and Sophia loves the spotlight. They moved into a cozy apartment downtown Cincinnati together and love living the city life but are hoping to become first time homeowners in their near future. They love to get together with family and friends, explore Cincinnati's parks, restaurants, and events, and yes, they love to sing and dance -- a lot. They cannot wait to tie the knot and start the rest of their lives together, in tandem. :)
